Question

So long I had installed wordpress blog on my domain which points to url like this

http://www.domainname.com/xxxx/blogs/

Now that I have shifted to new hosting, I had set up the blog in the following way

http://www.domainname.com/blog

The search engines have indexed my earlier url as i see the same when I search in search engines.

Is there any easy way to redirect from old url to new url.

thanks in advance

You will have to put up a .htaccess file and set it up for redirection. The .htaccess file will be in your public_html.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/XXXX/blogs/(.*)$ /blog/$1 [R]

This should doo…
