URL Aliasing


Automatic URL Aliasing

People looking for information on your Web site typically use search engines (such as Google.com) to find pages with the desired content. On rare occasions, some search engines may not work as well with the URL parameters that make up an Ektron CMS400.NET Web page name.

If this becomes a problem, use the Automatic URL Aliasing feature, which creates a page name that search engines easily recognize. The new name includes the template and the page's ID values.

When you use the Automatic URL Aliasing feature, Ektron CMS400.NET makes the following changes.

Here is an example of aliasing a content block.

Original URL

/400Intranet/mycalendars.aspx?id=2&calendar_id=1&eky=2003&ekm=9 

Aliased version

                       /400Intranet/mycalendars_ektid2_ektcalendarid1_ekteky2003_ektekm9.aspx 

Automatic Aliasing involves the installation of an ISAPI filter, which examines and modifies the URL. So, a small amount of additional resources may be used to help tread through a filter for every request.
