301 Redirects in Asp.net

Monday, July 31, 2006 (Updated 1/23/2008)

I've been doing some testing on a recent DNN module and noticed some issues that I think a 301 Redirect will handle.

Doing some quick googling I came up with the following topics to setup 301 redirects in asp.net.

I'll be building this into the module tomorrow and will report back on the results in the next couple of weeks. Currently I've got a site with close 100 pages of content, but google is only seeing 6 of those pages. I'm thinking if I implement 301 redirects for a link tracker I'm using this may help. Time will tell.

You don't need a module to do this - you can use a global.asax event. See http://www.demonzmedia.com/DemonzBlog/?p=13

Good try Nino, but you're redirect code isn't using a 301 redirect.
