Question

I am using ASP.NET MVC routes to direct traffic based on certain words, for instance mydomain.com/support which directs to the support page (under the Home controller), or mydomain.com/controller/action/id as per default.

However I would also like traffic to have the ability to use any single word after the gTLD – that I haven’t already specified – to hit my home page.

For instance: mydomain.com/anything would still hit my home page and not produce a 404 response. Where anything is any word other than what I have already specified (so in this example “support”).

Is this even possible?

Answer 1

You just do something like this don’t you?

routes.MapRoute(
  "MyRoute",
  "{word}.aspx",
    new { 
      controller = "Home",
      action = "Index"
  }  // Parameter defaults
);

?

And update your action (Index in this case to have a word parameter).
