Introduction
================

The Domain 301 Redirect module allows sites to 301 redirect to a domain that is
marked as the main domain. This means you can have all subdomains and other
domains 301 redirect to a domain that you choose as the main domain.
This provides great SEO benefit.

For all bugs, feature requests or support requests please use the Domain 301
Redirect issue queue at http://drupal.org/project/issues/domain_301_redirect

Key Functionality
=====================

1. Allows you to 301 redirect all other domains to a primary domain.

2. Allows simple validation that the primary domain points to the site.

3. Allows for periodic checking that the primary domain still points to
the site.

Installation
===============

1. Upload and install the Domain 301 Redirect module.

2. Go to Administer -> Config -> Search and metadata -> Domain 301 Redirect.

3. Change the status to enabled, enter the primary domain into the textfield
and enter any pages you will like included or excluded from redirection.

Examples
========

With the main domain set as http://www.example.com the following redirections
would take place:

1. http://example.com/user/1 -> http://www.example.com/user/1

2. http://mydomain.com/content/2 -> http://www.example.com/content/2

3. http://www.mydomain.com/somepage -> http://www.example.com/somepage

As you can see from the examples, the path remains in tact but the host portion
of the URL changes.
