 Description   

Summary

For improved SEO, any links that point to the docs.mongodb.com subdomain should be updated to point to the corresponding url on www.mongodb.com/docs.

For example:

Old URL: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/read-concern/index.html#read-concern-levels/ 
New URL: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/reference/read-concern/index.html#read-concern-levels/

When implementing this, be sure to search for the following so none are missed:

This change includes any links published on the web in some form such as API documentation, open source code comments, and reference documentation that is not managed by the Developer Education team.

Any links that remain on docs.mongodb.com should continue to redirect to the corresponding url on www.mongodb.com/docs indefinitely, but do not support or benefit from the SEO improvement.

 

 

Motivation

Who is the affected end user?

Users searching for MongoDB-related content.

How does this affect the end user?

How likely is it that this problem or use case will occur?

N/A

Is this issue urgent?

No timeline, but would be helpful to start using the new URL structure with current and upcoming versions.

Is this ticket required by a downstream team?

No, it is an SEO effort.

Is this ticket only for tests?

Doesn't change functionality of code or tests.
