Actually it’s not wrong. It’s dependant on the WordPress installation and the root domain specified. In my case, the / at the end of the domain is inclusive, hence not needing to use it in the 301 redirect.

Thanks for pointing it out though.

To anyone looking at implementing a redirect when moving a blog to a new domain – try both including and leaving out the / to see which works for you.

FYI, your 301 code is wrong.

RedirectMatch 301 (.*) http://www.your-domain.com$1 results in broken redirects.

You’re missing a /

RedirectMatch 301 (.*) http://www.your-domain.com/$1 is what you want.
