# Domain Migration Summary **Project**: WorkRoot Website **Migration**: `workroot.com` → `workroot.in` **Date**: 2026-03-21 **Status**: ✅ Code Changes Complete - Ready for Deployment --- ## Executive Summary This document summarizes the domain migration from **workroot.com** to **workroot.in**. All code changes have been completed and tested. The application is ready for production deployment pending DNS, SSL, and infrastructure updates. --- ## Changes Made ### 1. Configuration Files ✅ | File | Changes | |------|---------| | `astro.config.mjs` | Updated `site` property to `https://workroot.in` | | `tsconfig.json` | Updated path documentation | ### 2. API Routes ✅ | File | Changes | |------|---------| | `src/pages/api/sitemap.xml.ts` | Updated sitemap URL generation to use `workroot.in` | | `src/pages/api/health.json.ts` | Verified - no domain references (✓) | ### 3. SEO & Metadata ✅ | File | Changes | |------|---------| | `src/components/SEO.astro` | Updated canonical URLs and Open Graph metadata | | `src/layouts/*.astro` | Verified all layouts use SEO component correctly | ### 4. Content Schemas ✅ | File | Changes | |------|---------| | `src/content/config.ts` | Updated schema documentation and examples | ### 5. Documentation ✅ | File | Changes | |------|---------| | `README.md` | Updated all documentation URLs | | `CONTRIBUTING.md` | Updated contribution guidelines | | Other docs | Updated references across all markdown files | ### 6. Security Configuration ✅ **Audit Completed** - Security configurations verified: - ✅ No hardcoded domain in security headers - ✅ CSP headers properly configured - ✅ CORS settings reviewed - ✅ Middleware supports new domain - ✅ HSTS ready for production (conditional on HTTPS) ### 7. Build & Tests ✅ - ✅ Production build successful - ✅ All API routes tested and functional - ✅ Performance tests completed - ✅ No hardcoded references in source code - ✅ Security headers validated --- ## Deployment Requirements ### Critical Pre-Deployment Tasks 1. **DNS Configuration** - Point `workroot.in` A record to server IP - Point `www.workroot.in` A record to server IP - Wait for DNS propagation (24-48 hours) 2. **SSL Certificate** - Obtain SSL certificate for `workroot.in` - Install certificate on server - Configure nginx/apache for HTTPS 3. **Server Configuration** - Update nginx virtual host for new domain - Configure 301 redirects from `workroot.com` to `workroot.in` - Enable HSTS header - Test configuration 4. **Application Deployment** - Deploy latest code to production - Run build process - Restart application server - Verify all endpoints respond correctly 5. **Old Domain Redirects** - Setup 301 redirects from all `workroot.com` URLs - Maintain SSL certificate for `workroot.com` (for HTTPS redirects) - Test redirect chain ### Post-Deployment Tasks 1. **Search Engine Updates** - Add `workroot.in` to Google Search Console - Submit new sitemap - Set up Change of Address - Update Bing Webmaster Tools 2. **Third-Party Services** - Update analytics properties - Update social media profiles - Update API integrations - Update monitoring services 3. **Monitoring** - Monitor for 48-72 hours - Check error logs - Verify redirects working - Monitor search rankings --- ## Risk Assessment | Risk | Severity | Mitigation | |------|----------|------------| | DNS propagation delay | Medium | Plan migration during low-traffic period | | SSL certificate issues | High | Test certificate installation in staging first | | Broken redirects | Medium | Comprehensive testing of redirect rules | | SEO ranking impact | Medium | Proper 301 redirects + Google Change of Address | | Third-party integration breaks | Low | Update all services on deployment day | --- ## Testing Summary ### ✅ Completed Tests - **Build Test**: Production build completes successfully - **API Tests**: All endpoints return correct responses - **Security Audit**: No vulnerabilities found, headers configured correctly - **Performance Tests**: Response times within acceptable range - **Domain Verification**: No hardcoded `workroot.com` references in source code ### 🔄 Pending Tests (Post-Deployment) - SSL certificate validation on live domain - End-to-end redirect testing from old to new domain - Cross-browser testing on production - Mobile responsiveness verification - Search engine indexing verification --- ## Rollback Plan If critical issues occur post-deployment: 1. **Immediate**: Revert DNS to old configuration 2. **Server**: Restore previous nginx configuration 3. **Code**: Deploy previous stable version 4. **Communicate**: Notify team and stakeholders **Estimated Rollback Time**: 15-30 minutes --- ## Success Criteria Migration will be considered successful when: - ✅ New domain (`workroot.in`) loads correctly with valid SSL - ✅ All old domain URLs redirect properly (301 status) - ✅ No increase in error rates (404s, 500s) - ✅ Organic traffic maintained within 10% of baseline - ✅ No critical ranking drops for key search terms - ✅ All third-party integrations functional **Monitoring Period**: 30 days --- ## Timeline | Phase | Duration | Notes | |-------|----------|-------| | DNS Updates | Day 0 | Begin DNS propagation | | SSL Setup | Day 0-1 | Obtain and install certificates | | Code Deployment | Day 1 | Deploy when DNS propagated | | Redirect Setup | Day 1 | Configure old domain redirects | | Monitoring | Day 1-30 | Close monitoring for issues | | SEO Updates | Day 1-7 | Update search engines | | Full Migration | Day 30+ | Old domain can be deprecated | --- ## Documentation 📄 **Detailed Deployment Checklist**: See `DOMAIN-MIGRATION-CHECKLIST.md` 📄 **Deployment Guide**: See `DEPLOYMENT.md` 📄 **Security Audit**: Previous security audit documented in memory --- ## Team Responsibilities | Role | Responsibilities | |------|------------------| | **DevOps** | DNS, SSL, nginx configuration, deployment | | **Backend** | API testing, monitoring, error handling | | **Frontend** | UI testing, cross-browser verification | | **SEO** | Search engine updates, rankings monitoring | | **QA** | End-to-end testing, redirect verification | --- ## Sign-Off | Stakeholder | Status | Date | Notes | |-------------|--------|------|-------| | Development Lead | ⏳ Pending | -
