How to Redirect All Domain URLs to a New Domain | Update New Domain on Google Search Console
In this video, I will show you how to redirect all domain URLs to a new domain. This tutorial is perfect for those who have moved their WordPress website to a new domain and want to retain their existing traffic. I guide you through each step of the process, from setting up redirections to updating your domain on Google Search Console.
This is crucial for maintaining your site's SEO and ensuring that your visitors are seamlessly directed to the new domain. We'll look at the example domains: the old domain, wptrialzone.com, and the new domain, testntry.com.
You can quickly transfer your WordPress site to a new domain using the All-in-One WP Migration and Backup plugin.
We'll locate, open, and edit the .htaccess file on the old domain. I'll demonstrate how to delete the existing code and paste the new redirection code to ensure that all URLs on the old domain point to the new domain.
Once the redirection setup is complete, we'll test it to ensure all URLs are correctly redirected to the new domain. You'll see live examples of how posts and categories from the old domain automatically redirect to the corresponding URLs on the new domain. This will confirm that the .htaccess file redirection is working properly.
After setting up the redirections, I'll show you how to update the domain on Google Search Console. This step is essential for informing Google about the domain change and ensuring that your SEO efforts are not lost. I'll walk you through the process of adding the new domain property, verifying domain ownership, and confirming the domain move in the Google Search Console.
