Want to point your old website to a new one? First of all, identify your web hosting platform. Is it using Windows IIS or Linux Apache Web Server? This guide will touch on Linux Apache Web Server.

Things to do…

  1. Create .htaccess file with notepad.
  2. Write “Redirect 301 / http://www.NewWebsite.com/” in that file.
  3. Upload .htaccess to the domain root folder that you want to redirect.
  4. That’s all.

With steps above, you don’t need to change your website code. ;)
