Redirecting old webpages

[Hilary]

I used to use Microsoft Publisher and just switched to
FrontPage 2003. How do I redirect my old webpages to my
new webpages if I do not want to name my pages the same as
my old ones. I have very high rankings in search engines
and do not want to have someone click on an old page and
not get my new page.

My computer also crashed and I do not have any of my old
pages, I do not know if this matters or not. Thank you in
advance for your time.

<%
response.redirect http://www.yourdomain.com/newpage.htm
%>

you can use the relative path also

or just replace the web page

Hi Mike,

That would require very page to be an ASP page. Changing the page name
breaks the links from the search engines.

In your old pages add a redirect META tag
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="10; URL=http://www.yourdomain.com/thenewpage.htm">
Where the 10 will redirect in 10 seconds
Also good idea to add a manual link and text - this page has moved
