I have the same site in .net (ex: xyz.net) and .com (ex: xyz.com) versions. Currently the .net is hosted in one place and .com somewhere else. We use a domain alias so that .com works through the .net host.

I want to make the .net version redirect to .com. How do you do this?


p.s. I am not a programmer, the programmer in charge of my site doesn't know how to do a 301 redirect, I heard that it is simple - can you help?

"We use a domain alias so that .com works through the .net host."

The domain alias pushes .com visitors to .net, but you want .net redirected to .com? Maybe I'm reading it wrong.

In any case, this page (http://www.webconfs.com/how-to-redirect-a-webpage.php) should help you. If it doesn't make sense, post again and I can help clarify.
