Hot Topics - OBsolete URLs

Our website (www.falcon-software.com) was totally redesigned recently, changing many of the internal URLs within our domain.

However, you may wish to investigate whether other websites have links to your internal URLs. If they do, you can ask them to update the URLs on their website -- often a lost cause if you have many of these links on other websites. For a quicker, more efficient solution, you can ask your Falcon-Software project manager to set up your website configuration file to make an automatic transfer from the old to the new page. Alternatively, you can set up an automatic redirect page at the old URL so if anyone comes to the old page, they are transferred to the new URL.
