Apache and Re Writing Domain Names

We have just implemented a new feature to our Content Management System, Teacup Web Tools V2.00.

Apache URL Rewriting

What this does, is allow a dynamic database based website's url or link to be changes to a more 'Google' friendly domain name.

Example

The old link

http://www.teacup.co.za/?website_pagesid=134

can be changed to

http://www.teacup.co.za/request_a_quote.html


This will still access the dynamic web content as usual and the old dynamic link will still work.

It should allow search engines to index sites faster.

Some more testing must still be done, but we will be updating our current clients with this new feature as soon as possible.

Cheers for now.....
