Redirect

Redirect Pages

Redirection is commonly used to have visitors who request a page that no longer exists redirected to another web page. ie. lets say you have remove file old.html and want to send people looking for it to web page new.html. All it takes is one simple line, quick and easy.

Redirect /old.html http://your_domain.html/new.html

An additional option is available. This is apparently the best way from a search engine point of view.

Redirect permanent /old.html http://your_domain.html/new.html

The only difference is the error code generated while redirecting the request. It indicates the requested document has moved for good and will not be back.
