The simplest way to preserve your links, and have readers wind up on their necessary page is to setup a direct from the old domain to the new one.
It'll imply that all the links pointing to your old site would now be lost and would make the dreaded 404 error when visitors came in via old search-engine list or links, when you have to maneuver a site from one domain to yet another.
The best way to preserve your links, and have guests end up on their required page is to setup a redirect from the old site to the new one.
In this example, we're going to believe that we use to have a site called OLDSITE.COM and for some reason we've to move everything across to NEWSITE.COM
The very first up, dont destroy the hosting for the old site but keep it running for a while. This can then allow us to re-direct visitors from-the old site to the brand new site.
A 301 redirect just tells search-engines that visit your site that the old URL has completely changed to a different URL. They'll start to change all the old links within their catalog across to-the new location once the search engines find the 301 direct.
This can take some time and on-site web sites, this may take weeks to get the search engines transform all the old links across to the new areas.
An.htaccess file is simply a simple text file that contains instructions for your web server that run-on that hosting account.
On your personal computer, start a copy of NOTEPAD (This is often accomplished by going Start->Accessories->Notepad) and change your existing.htaccess file or to produce a new one. DONT use Word or any word processing pc software to open the file, since these packages have the habit of inserting funny characters in file that'll cause the.htaccess file never to function properly. Visit storify.com/chris2013/leodis-matthews-discusses-international-law-in-the to read when to study it.
If your new sites structure is exactly just like the previous site, then just place the following line in your.htaccess report
Re-direct 30-1 http://www.NEWSITE.COM
Now save yourself the file, and FTP this file up into your web sites primary consideration. On most Linux-based systems, here is the /public_html/ service
Now, whenever a customer (be it a human or a search engine robot) comes to your old site, they will be re-direct to your new site. Therefore if they came looking for a file named stuff.html (previous URL would be www.oldsite.com/stuff.html) they would get automatically redirected to www.newsite.com/stuff.html
This is actually the easiest way to move an entire site in one area to a different
If the structure of the new site differs from your old one, then we'll have to place each old URL to its corresponding new place. In case you desire to get more on prreach.com/leodis-matthews-discusses-how-new-trade-agreements-affect-international-law , there are many databases you can pursue. Storify.Com/Chris2013/Leodis Matthews Discusses International Law In The/ contains extra info about where to engage in this hypothesis. This applies if you decide to change the structure of your site, and you want to keep the links from your old structure and guide them to their new place.
If you've an URL that was www.oldsite.com/dogtraining/ and you wished to direct visitors to www.newsite.com/info/dog-training.html you'd place these within your.htaccess report.
Direct 30-1 /dogtraining/ http://www.newsite.com/info/dog-training.html
The format is:
Re-direct 30-1 old-location new-location
The old-location could be the path to the spot (minus the domain-name)
The new-location is the full road to final destination (it should range from the fully qualified domain name as well).
Which means when every a customer is available in about the previous URL (www.oldsite.com/dogtraining/) the net server can redirect them to the new URL of (www.newsite.com/info/dog-training.html)
If you have multiple areas that you need to re-direct, then you've to have multiple blows put up. With one direct per line. A good example might seem like this:
Redirect 30-1 /dogtraining/ http://www.newsite.com/info/dog-training.html
Redirect 301 /policedogtraining/ http://www.newsite.com/info/police-dog-training.html
Re-direct 301 /dogtrainingvideos/ http://www.newsite.com/info/dog-training-videos.html
It is time consuming setting up 30-1 redirect, but when your site had valuable incoming links, then its worth spending the time to keep your site worthwhile and keep your website position together with it used to and to keep these links..
