Redirecting internal pages to another domain
-
Hi,
I recently redirected the domain www.organic7thheaven.com to http://www.7thheavennaturals.com/
However, the internal pages of www.organic7thheaven.com such as http://www.7thheavennaturals.com/products/sensitivesouls/ are now displaying a 404 Not Found Message
How can I have it so that pages such as the above automatically also redirect to http://www.7thheavennaturals.com/
Thanks!

Hello,
I think you would do the following and put it in the old .htacess file.
Redirect 301 /products http://www.7thheavennaturals.com
Does your new site have the same products as the old folder? because if you 301 re-direct the links to the homepage, there isn't going to be much link value to it since it's not really related thus those links will most likely be removed from the search results. If you have similar products on your new site, you should do a 301 re-direct the url's individually to maintain the link juice/value (as it is most relevant).

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. No, the new site currently does not have any products. Just a holding style page.
So I need to create an .htaccess file with the following?
Redirect 301 /products http://www.7thheavennaturals.com
Should this .htaccess file be located on the old FTP or the new site FTP?
Thanks!

Hello,
No problem.
That should be located in .htacess folder where the old site, www.organic7thheaven.com is located.
