There is a WordPress plugin called "redirection" :

It works also for single pages, full website, etc.

301 redirect is the best that you can have. It is the most efficient and Search Engine Friendly method for webpage redirection. It's not that hard to implement and it should preserve your search engine rankings for that particular page. If you have to change file names or move pages around, it's the safest option. The code "301" is interpreted as "moved permanently".

Just use 301 redirect, which will redirect all the old pages on the old domain to the same pages on the new domain. Create a.Htaceess file in the root of oldsite.com with the following code
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule (.*) http://networking.4businessglobal.com/$1 [R=301,L]

You change the directory of your WordPress installation.
You have moved your website to a New domain, and you want the old URLs from a previous website to point to new URL.
You change the Permalinks (URL structure) of your posts and want to redirect people visiting old pages to right pages.
You want to maintain a preferred (canonical) destination for your homepage. (Redirecting www version to non-www version of your homepage).
In all above cases, we want the 301 response status code as we have changed the URL forever.
