One of the coolest new features in Joomla 1.6/1.7 is the Redirect Manager. It can be of great help to your site SEO by allowing you to redirect old (invalid) URLs to new working ones. Without a redirection you will get a 404 error – component not found which is bad for your search engine ranking.

[FONT=arial]Redirect Manager’s functionality is quite straightforward. You just add a new redirection and make sure that its status is active. Please just make sure to specify the full source and destination URL – such as http://example.org/full_url/.

[FONT=arial]This new feature to J1.6+/J1.7 is essential to any modern site and proof for this is that it has been available in third party Joomla SEO extensions for quite some time.[/FONT]
