SEO Manager - Redirect an old URL to a page in the EPiServer page tree
As an EPiServer administrator I want to redirect an old URL to an existing page in the page tree.
Welcome to this video about SEO Manager for EPiServer.
I'm going to show you how SEO Manager can help you add old URLs and redirect them to an existing page in the page tree.
Let's say that you have an old URL that you, with Google Webmaster Tools or logs, can see is still requested by visitors. In this example the old URL is "/myoldurl", and when visitors request it they will only get the standard 404 since the page is not found. What we want to do is redirect the visitors to an existing page on the site.
To handle this I will go to the SEO Manager administration interface and select "Custom addresses".
I'll start by selecting the correct language for the URL.
I will then click on "Add URL".
When the popup appears I will write the old URL in the field "Redirect from".
After that I will select the page in the site tree where I want the old URL to be redirected to.
After clicking "Save" you can see that the URL has been added in the list.
I will now go back to the site and try the old URL again. As you can see the request will be redirected to the "Products" page that we redirected to.
You can also go into the edit mode and look at the URL view of the "products" page. In the list of previous URLs you can see that the old URL is added.
