We want to fold tailscale.dev back into the main tailscale.com website, and shut down the old service. Cool URIs Don’t Change[^1], so this patch sets up permanent redirects to equivalent content. It’s also because a 301 Permanent Redirect tells Googlebot that we’ve moved the page and it can transfer its SEO ranking to the new one: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/301-redirects Pages that need redirecting: http://go/redirect-tailscale.dev Updates tailscale/corp#29153 [^1]: https://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI

all the pages you have here LGTM. I guess it's fine to redirect the /blog index page before we redirect the individual posts.

Thanks @willnorris. I’m still waiting for @emilym-tailscale to report back on the SEO implications of this change. I could definitely split this change up so that the Sanity pages get redirected later. |

You can use the preview link as well e.g https://tailscale-dev-git-chris-web-936redirects-additional-tailscale.vercel.app/ and append a redirect link e.g. https://tailscale-dev-git-chris-web-936redirects-additional-tailscale.vercel.app/solutions/connect-to-your-nas
