How to Redirect a Page or Website Using htaccess

Redirecting a page - Keeping your website structure intact   
Whether you are restructuring your website or simply want to redirect users from one page to another, knowing how to redirect a single page can be very useful. We will explain the different methods of redirection and provide step-by-step instructions on how to implement them effectively.  

If a page on your website no longer exists and you want to redirect it to a new page or website, you can use the dot htaccess file to redirect visitors.  

Redirect from a page/directory to another domain or the main domain:  

Redirect from a specific page to a domain:  
RewriteEngine on  
Redirect 301 /mypage.html http://example.com  


Redirect from one page to another page:  
#Redirect from a page/directory to another page  
Redirect 301 /oldpage.html /newpage.html  


Whenever you open a URL such as example.com/oldpage.html, it will redirect you to example.com/newpage.html 

 

Beyond simple page redirections, htaccess offers a multitude of advanced techniques to enhance your website's functionality. From redirecting specific devices or countries to implementing custom error pages, we'll explore some of the innovative ways in which you can harness the power of htaccess for an optimized user experience.
