A page can be redirected by adding a specific code in the server or .htaccess file. The code used for redirecting depends on the type of redirect needed. There are two types of redirects: 301 redirect and 302 redirect.

A 301 redirect is a permanent redirect that tells search engines and browsers that the page has been moved permanently to a new location. The code used for a 301 redirect is:

Redirect 301 /oldpage.html http://www.yoursite.com/newpage.html

A 302 redirect is a temporary redirect that tells search engines and browsers that the page has been moved temporarily to a new location. The code used for a 302 redirect is:

Redirect 302 /oldpage.html http://www.yoursite.com/newpage.html

Both types of redirects can be set up using the server or .htaccess file, depending on the website's platform. It is important to set up redirects correctly to avoid any negative impact on search engine rankings and user experience.
