Adding them will allow you to automatically redirect users and search engines to your new domain name.</p> <p id="block-4a2530e3-97b6-4da3-a3ad-dbcc7d677877">In other words, whenever someone lands on a post or page on your old domain, they will be automatically redirected to the same post or page on your new domain instead of seeing a <a href="https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-track-404-pages-and-redirect-them-in-wordpress/" title="How to Easily Track 404 Pages and Redirect Them in WordPress">404 error</a>.</p> <p id="block-49c09e82-043e-4121-929e-ff7e118f876e">To keep your redirects in place, you’ll need to keep your old WordPress installation active so it can continue to redirect to the new one you just created.</p> <p id="block-38b4fbb6-dfad-4e99-be2b-fc080dc1c005">There are two ways to set up the redirects. The first method is easy and just takes a few clicks. The second method requires you to edit files manually.</p> <p id="block-b25aff43-42ff-471d-b13b-30f513f474a3"><strong>Method 1: Set Up 301 Redirects With All in One SEO</strong></p> <p id="block-aa54e268-000b-4941-9aae-35c5835fa149">For this method, you’ll need <a href="https://aioseo.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="All in One SEO (AIOSEO)">All in One SEO (AIOSEO)</a>. It is the best WordPress SEO plugin on the market and allows you to easily optimize your WordPress website for SEO.</p> <p id="block-a3369c72-118f-4a93-a37a-cc60f8605ae0">First, you need to install and activate the <a href="https://aioseo.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="All in One SEO (AIOSEO)">All in One SEO</a> plugin on your old domain.

It should automatically redirect you to the new domain.</p> <p id="block-68937dfe-ea38-48bd-943d-3e8dc1b0e34d">If it doesn’t, then it means the redirection is not set up properly, and your server likely doesn’t support redirect rules. You need to contact the support team at your web hosting company to get RewriteEngine turned on.</p> <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="block-7c782bcb-8b17-41ac-a64c-2f88a9716302">Step 5: Notify Google About Your New Domain</h4> <p id="block-84439402-03ab-45e0-9cd1-2d51a6da535e">Now that you have moved WordPress to a new domain name and set up redirects, it is time to notify Google about your change of address. This will help Google find your new website domain quickly and start showing it in search results.</p> <p id="block-d100cc4c-af3f-4f98-8818-3e9c51e61d38">First, you need to make sure that both your new and old domains are added to the Google Search Console as two different properties.
