You could give the URL configuration which you’re using to handle the home page a name and use that:
urls.py:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
urlpatterns = patterns('myproject.views',
url(r'^$', 'index', name='index'),
)
Templates:
<a href="{% url index %}">...
UPDATE: Newer versions of Django require quotation marks around the name of the view:
<a href="{% url 'index' %}">...

I always use something like <a href="/"> (assuming your home is at the root, of course). I seem to recall looking this up once, and couldn’t find a Django variable for this path; at any rate, / seemed pretty easy, anyway.

In your admin, go to “sites” and set the domain.
Pass context_instance=RequestContext(request) to the templates in question.
Now use {{ SITE_URL }} in any of those templates and you’re golden.
Chapter 10 of the Django Book has more information than you’ll need regading that context processor bit.

(r'^$', 'django.views.generic.simple.redirect_to', {'url': '/home/'}),
works fine 🙂
