Global Redirection Rules

[JSOC]

SEO Moz Community:

After twice changing directory software, I have a ton of 404 errors in Webmaster Tools (over 3,000). I've decided to do 301 redirects but can't manually enter in each 404 URL.

How can you redirect pages from the same folder on a mass scale?

For example, mysite.com/autos has hundreds of pages associated with it (/autos/ford, toyota etc.) How can you do a 301 that redirects all those pages without manually entering in each URL?

Howdy JSOC. You can use regex in your .htaccess file. Here's a tutorial to get you started. I'm still trying to master this subject myself, but if you want to provide the specifics, I'll do my best the help you. And if all else fails, you can ask Casey Henderson @ SEOmoz, he'll definitely be able to help you out
