Changing the domain name of an Active Website

Two options:

1. Create another WP install and keep both synced (manually or automatically, depending on what’s possible with your host)
2. Redirect all visitors from the current domain to the new domain.

You can install another WP and keep it synced either in manual way or automatically. It depends upon the possible host you are using.You have to redirect all the viewers of your current domain to your new one.Just try, it may help you.

Great, how do I redirect visitors from the current domain to the new domain.

thanks

– Take a backup of your old domain’s htaccess file.
– Remove everything inside it
– Add Redirect 301 / https://newdomain.com/
