How Do I Build A Redirect From An Asp Site To A Php Site?
February 9, 2010 under FAQ
My company switched from an asp site to a php site. We want to build redirects so that we don’t lose all of the good product reviews done by bloggers and other sources. Can someone give me the code so I can create these redirects. We were previously using network solutions. Now we are using joomla.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
