Redirects from old docs site #329

Open sacha-l opened 1 year ago

sacha-l commented 1 year ago

This issue came up whereby the following URL from the old docs site has come up in searches: https://substrate-developer-hub.github.io/docs/en/index

Any link from https://substrate-developer-hub.github.io/ should redirect to docs.substrate.io.

IIRC this is an easy fix to just add the URL to some redirect file in the new site's codebase.

Hi Sacha,

This would actually require the redirect to be placed on the old site/domain but seeing as this is a Github domain that appears to have been removed at some point I am not sure there is anything we can do.

We could perhaps try to host something on the same old domain and then implement redirects but I don't know if this would be worth it or not.

Ok makes sense. It doesn't seem worth the effort. The important part is that its no longer deployed. This should help remove it from coming up in SEO right?
