Technical Questions About Changing Domains
Posted: Tue Jun 14, 2011 10:42 pmWill the old domain redirect to the new one? What kind of redirect? And will each page redirect to the same same page on the new domain (given that the relative paths don't change)?
If the old domain doesn't redirect automatically, what are my options to make sure it does?
It appears that the site goes offline for awhile during the change. What server response code do you issue during this time? I would prefer a 503 code.
