+# ReadTheDocs Deployment Guide
+
+This guide walks you through deploying the MongoDB Query Builder documentation to ReadTheDocs.io.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- GitHub repository with the documentation
+- ReadTheDocs account (free at readthedocs.org)
+- MkDocs documentation set up (already done!)
+
+## Local Testing
+
+First, test the documentation locally:
+
+```bash
+# Install MkDocs dependencies
+pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
+
+# Serve documentation locally
+mkdocs serve
+
+# Visit http://localhost:8000 to preview
+```
+
+## ReadTheDocs Setup
+
+### 1. Import Project
+
+1. Log in to [ReadTheDocs.org](https://readthedocs.org)
+2. Click "Import a Project"
+3. Select "Import from GitHub"
+4. Choose your `mongodb-builder` repository
+5. Click "Next"
+
+### 2. Project Configuration
+
+ReadTheDocs will automatically detect the `.readthedocs.yaml` file. Verify these settings:
+
+- **Name**: MongoDB Query Builder
+- **Repository URL**: Your GitHub repo URL
+- **Default branch**: main (or master)
+- **Documentation type**: MkDocs (auto-detected)
+
+### 3. Advanced Settings
+
+In the project admin panel:
+
+1. **Domains**: 
+   - Default: `mongodb-query-builder.readthedocs.io`
+   - Can add custom domain later
+
+2. **Versions**:
+   - Enable version tags for releases
+   - Set "latest" as default version
+
+3. **Build Settings**:
+   - Build on push: ✓
+   - Build pull requests: ✓ (optional)
+
+### 4. Environment Variables (if needed)
+
+If you need any environment variables, add them in:
+Admin → Environment Variables
+
+## GitHub Integration
+
+### Webhook Setup
+
+ReadTheDocs automatically sets up a webhook. Verify in your GitHub repo:
+
+1. Go to Settings → Webhooks
+2. You should see a ReadTheDocs webhook
+3. It triggers on push events
+
+### Build Status Badge
+
+Add to your README.md:
+
+```markdown
+[![Documentation Status](https://readthedocs.org/projects/mongodb-query-builder/badge/?version=latest)](https://mongodb-query-builder.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest)
+```
+
+## Version Management
+
+For version management with `mike`:
+
+```bash
+# Install mike
+pip install mike
+
+# Deploy initial version
+mike deploy --push --update-aliases 0.1.0 latest
+
+# Deploy new version
+mike deploy --push --update-aliases 0.2.0 latest
+
+# List versions
+mike list
+
+# Set default version
+mike set-default --push latest
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Build Failures
+
+1. Check build logs in ReadTheDocs dashboard
+2. Common issues:
+   - Missing dependencies in `docs/requirements.txt`
+   - Incorrect `mkdocs.yml` syntax
+   - Python version mismatch
+
+### Custom Domain
+
+To use a custom domain:
+
+1. Add CNAME record pointing to `readthedocs.io`
+2. Add domain in ReadTheDocs admin panel
+3. Enable HTTPS
+
+### Search Not Working
+
+Ensure in `mkdocs.yml`:
+- Search plugin is enabled
+- Language is set correctly
+
+## Maintenance
+
+### Updating Documentation
+
+1. Make changes to documentation files
+2. Commit and push to GitHub
+3. ReadTheDocs automatically rebuilds
+
+### Monitoring
+
+- Check build status in ReadTheDocs dashboard
+- Monitor 404 errors in analytics
+- Review search queries for missing content
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. Complete placeholder documentation files
+2. Add more examples and tutorials
+3. Set up documentation versioning
+4. Consider adding:
+   - API changelog
+   - Contributing guide
+   - Architecture diagrams
+   - Video tutorials
