Clients receiving SEO reports using wrong file extension

Postby primhoster on Mon Jun 16, 2008 3:25 pm

Any new client seo report links that 1stPlaceDesign emails to my clients are being sent out with the extension “.asp”. My new web server is running Linux with apache, so I am now using php.

How do I change these outgoing links?

And is the anyway I can redirect the existing asp links that where sent out to the right page? Because clients are getting 404’s at the moment.

When you signed up for the reseller program you should have received an email with your login and password details for the reseller portal (https://secure.1stplacedesign.com.au). If you have lost your login details just contact support.

As soon as you login you will arrive at the “my-account.aspx” page, at the bottom click the “edit” button, then select PHP from the “file type” drop down menu.

As for establishing asp redirects on your web server; you can place a “.htaccess” in the root folder of the domain your scripts are hosted on.

In the “.htaccess” file you will need to type something like;

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.asp(.*)$ $1.php$2 [T=application/x-httpd-php,L]

This will redirect any asp file extensions to an equivalent php file with the same name.
It will also carry across the same query string.

If you where using IIS the same thing can be done in the “global.asmx” file.
