Using htaccess to redirect blog domain, but keep blog links actice

Viewed 17

I'm trying to redirect the URL of a wordpress blog to a new URL (which isn't wordpress anymore), but want to retain the blog links since it's indexed in Google pretty well.

I'm using the following:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog.exampledomain.com  !^/? [NC]
RewriteRule ^blog.domain.com https://exampledomain.com/blog [R=301,NC,L]

What I want is to redirect the EXACT domain "blog.exampledomain.com" (and only this request) to the new domain, but if someone accesses "blog.exampledomain.com/post-name", he should get there.

Where do I go wrong with my train of thought?
