We used the following mod rewrite rule   RewriteEngine on RewriteCond   REQUEST URI     test  RewriteCond   REQUEST URI     my-folder  RewriteRule      http   www newdomain com  1  R 301 L    This redirects  permanently with a 301 redirect  all traffic to the site to http   www newdomain com  except requests to resources in the  test and  my-folder directories   We transfer the user to the exact resource they requested by using the      capture group and then including  1 in the new URL  Mind the spaces
