Read the Docs is in the process of migrating our primary marketing website to a single site: https://about.readthedocs.com.
The new site offers users more information about our products and their features,
in a combined presentation of what was previously divided between two websites (Read the Docs Community and Read the Docs for Business).
At the same time, the new site will also serve as a single entrypoint for users that are logging in to Read the Docs accounts.

There has been a good deal of confusion around our two sites,
and this change makes it more clear which site you're going to.

Marketing website migration process

This was done in January 2023.
#. ✅ Redirecting *logged out* Business (``readthedocs.com``) users to the new site.
This was done in February 2023, and we've been monitoring the impact of this change.
#. The final step will be to redirect *logged out* Community (``readthedocs.org``) users to the new site.
This will happen in Q2 2023,
as we want to make sure the experience is smooth for users who are used to browsing our current site.
#. ✅ The final step will be to redirect *logged out* Community (``readthedocs.org``) users to the new site.
This was done in August 2023, and we continue to iterate to make this a smooth transition.

We're excited about our new website,
because historically we have done a poor job of explaining our products.
Being able to have a single site that explains the features of our various sites,
because it gives us more space to explain the benefits of using our product.
Being able to have a single site that explains all our features,
and the value that Read the Docs brings to the documentation ecosystem is exciting for us.
