Redirect.pizza for Redirecting Old->New Domain

meta
1

The Meteor docs used to include a recommendation to use redirect.pizza to redirect an old domain to a new one. This was very helpful recently, as support at my dns host said they were unable to do it for some reason. Checking the old link, I no longer see reference there to this service.

Suggestion: consider adding a reference to this service to the M3 docs.

Alternatives to RedirectPizza

1) Redirect with clientside Javascript at static HTML page

<head>
  <title>This website has been moved</title>
</head>
<body>

<!-- If Javascript is enabled, try to redirect -->
<script type="text/javascript">
  window.location.href = "https://yournewcompany.com";
</script>

<!-- If Javascript is not enabled, show link to new website -->
<noscript>
  <center>
    <br>
    <br>
    <h1>This website has been moved</h1>
    <p>New address is:
      <a href="https://yournewcompany.com">https://yournewcompany.com</a>
    </p>
  </center>
</noscript>

</body>
</html>

2) Redirect with serverside PHP

index.php:

<?php
header("Location: https://yournewcompany.com");
die();
?>

I think we need something that works on the DNS level.
I use DNSimple and ALIAS record.
Here is the new docs on this: DNS | Galaxy Support

But looking at the new docs looks like I will have to review my setup for optimal results.
