To redirect a single page, put this in the .htaccess file: Redirect 301 /oldpage.html http://www.yoursite.com/newpage.html Code (markup): or Redirect permanent /oldpage.html http://www.yoursite.com/newpage.html Code (markup): This will redirect ALL pages from your old site to the new site: redirect 301 / http://www.yourdomain.com/ Code (markup):
I just did that a couple days ago for one of my sites and Google processed it prefectly. I saw a drop in listings because someone had linked to one of my subdomains using www.sub.domain.com . Google started using it instead of just sub.domain.com and I fell a few spots. Put up the 301 and now everything is back to normal including my number one listing
i couldn't get the 301 to work exactly like i wanted, but i was able to get it working with a rewriterule
