.htaccess redirect to new website url's
Hi everyone!
I used Screaming Frog to find out my website url structure an it shows that I have 3 urls basically leading to same place. These are:
/http://domain.tld/
/http://www.domain.tld/
/http://domain.tld/index.php?l=HR
I made completely new website and would like to keep SEO from old url's. As soon I redirect I will delete complete old website. I dont have subdomains available to test first.
So how to configure .htaccess to redirect these 3 url's to new index.html?
Also, can I delete old language translation url's (DE, ENG, IT url's) and redirect them with 302 temporary to "under construction page" to keep SEO juice?
I will have translation pages for other langugaes few weeks later.
Also, do I have to delete old website to put new in function or can I just shut down the old one without deleting?
Thanx in advance for patience to read this long post.

Hello :) You may want to consult with the support or developers of the script you are using before implementing custom Mod_Rewrite rules. It's possible these rules might break the website's functionality, so it's a good idea to check with them first. Thank you. 0 -

Thanks for reply. My plan is delete active (old) web page tomorow. Then make .htaccess redirets of old deleted url's to new one's which I would copy to public_html folder after deletion of old webpage. Will these two url's automaticly recognize new index.html file or should I redirect them via .htaccess?0 -
Yes, index.html pages will load automatically unless you have modified the default DirectoryIndex priority. Thank you. 0
