Permanent redirect How to do it?
You need to divide the action into two steps: You need to create a 301 map and then implement it on your web page (usually using developers). Redirecting the entire domain to a new domain with old page content is possible without losing any SEO value, and it is one of the SEO best practices.

How to check if it is active and search engines ready?
To check whether a URL redirects to another URL, you can use many tools available on the Internet. Among the most commonly used are: redirect-checker.org and Google Sheets and a specially prepared script for this purpose.
We can also check it manually by typing the URL into the browser. If we are taken to a new address instead of the outdated page, it means that a redirect was performed. This way, however, we will not check what type of redirection was used and whether the transition to the new URL is not done through a so-called redirect chain.
