You'll have to do it for each URL if the names are different. Edit your .htaccess file and put this for every URL (on a new line): redirect 301 /old_page_name.html http://www.domain.com/new_page_name.html
Or Options +Indexes Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^domain_name_registration.html$ http://www.domainxyz.com/domain-name.html [R=301,L] with a RewriteRule line like that for each URL.
