[Techtalk] Moving Websites: 301 Redirect

[Gayathri Swaminathan]

Hi Sue,

You are right on using Apache mod_rewrite and doing a 301 redirect.

Here's a nice article that explains how to accomplish this:
http://www.gnc-web-creations.com/301-redirect.htm

Under reference you will see guide for Rewrite:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html

To accomplish specific page level redirects need to use RewriteRule and
RewriteCond

Write us if the article or document does not help.

Cheers,
gayathri
