If the only thing that has changed is the domain name, why not just use IIS to set up a permanent site redirect from old to new instead of using MVC?

The HTTP response status code 301 Moved Permanently is used for permanent redirection.

Google recommends using a 301 redirect to change the URL of a page as it is shown in search engine results.

According to this question here you have 2 options:

Installing the HTTP Redirect feature in IIS7.
Do redirection at application level (using Application_BeginRequest at Global.asax).
