I had a blog which have 400+ pages indexed in search engine. Now I have shifted to a proper hosting with a proper script and because of which all those links got dead. How can I redirect those links to new links. For example: Old Link : http://www.abc.com/2008/02/post1.html New link : http://www.abc.com?pageid=1 Old Link : http://www.abc.com/2008/02/post2.html New link : http://www.abc.com?pageid=2 There are more than 400 links like these above two. Old links were in blogger and they are not valid anymore since I have changed the domain nameserver to my hosting. One way is that I make same directory structure as blogger in my server and redirect each and every page by php Header:Location, but in that case i have to make 400 different pages which is very tiresome. Is there any simple way?
htaccess url rewriting or something like it. I know it can be done but im not savvyy enough. You might get more response in the apache forum here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=49
