Website 301 Redirect with an .htaccess file, how to move web pages

Thanks for this video! I'm switching over to a new domain and have a large link list (ecommerce website) to redirect to the new domain. My previous site is huge so after I do the redirects can I just delete the old site completely - will it affect anything? Thanks!

thank you bro

do 301 redirects only work when the site is live? or does it work locally too?

Thankssss so much. I really needed this. Extremely easy to do.

newscorn I know very little about web design and development and this video saved me from reading loads of tutorials. Just follow the instruction exactly as explained and pay attention.

video is not so clear... use Zooming While recording

My experience is that you can loose a whole lot when moving to a new domain name. Make sure to look at Google Webmaster tools for the most up-to-date advice on the subject.

That's what i'm looking for! My PR come back to me in recent days! Thanks.

Thanks for the video. I had no idea that it's so easy to redirect :)

More than 3,400 hits, show that very niche content can build your authority and drive traffic.

Zed, moving hosts generally means you keep the same page names, so in theory, you need to do nothing. Redirect is for deleting pages, changing page names, so that you can better inform Google of your actions.

Hi, thank you for posting this video. Will this method work even if I'm actually moving the website to a new host?

solved my problem brilliantly. Thank you!
