Anyone have a strategy or process for setting up re-directs to a Drupal CMS? Have read about creating a Drupal version of the old page and then using URL aliases of the old URL structure.
If your old urls are 'clean' urls then you can choose for keeping the existing ones or creating new ones with a redirect. For example if you have currently urls like: http://yourwebsite.com/article.php?id=130 Code (markup): Then you should create clean urls with Drupal, the above could be something like: http://yourwebsite.com/fun/shoot-me Code (markup): The old url: http://yourwebsite.com/article.php?id=130 Code (markup): should do a 301 redirect to: http://yourwebsite.com/fun/shoot-me Code (markup): For more information read this Google guide could be usefull and for creating 301 redirects Drupal has modules.
