Hi, I created a new Webflow site to replace an old Webflow site. We are getting ready to launch, and wondering if there is anything we need to consider before switching the production domain on the old site to the new site.
I plan to enter the production URL in the new Webflow account and delete the production URL in the old Webflow account.
We’ve already gone through 301s to make sure our URLs are set correctly. Just wondering about the production domain and if we would experience any downtime.
Ideally I’d want to do a seamless site transfer so they’re in the same account first, then transfer the plan. This simplifies a lot of things regarding domain validation and site plan settings.
Otherwise if they must be in separate accounts, I’d assume that you’d
Add your site plan to the new site
Remove the domain from the previous site
Add it to the new site
Probably re-verify it since it’s a new workspace and you have to prove domain ownership
Thanks Michael. yes - I am in control of both sites and the new plan is setup on the new site. I’m on to step 2, but just want to make sure I get this right.
