CREATING A .HTACCESS FILE
Creating a .htaccess file is very simple.
Open a Text Editor like Notepad or UltraEdit. Paste the Generated code in that file (should look like redirect 301 /contact-us.html http://www.yoursite.com/contact.php).
Now, either press Ctrl (Control Button) + S or click on File > Save option.
In the Save File Dialog Box, enter ".htaccess" in the File Name field. (Make sure you use double quoted " ") and hit save. (You do not have to change the file type option, leave it as it is).
Done, your .htaccess file has been created. You can add more 301 Redirect codes in this file if you want.
Upload this file to your Root Folder along with the index files (Home Page Files) and it will start working immediately.
We do recommend that you test all the old web page URLs manually before deleting them from the server.
