Hi

Is it possible to make an extension page to the domain as the default or homepage but not calling it
index or default, like

www.discoversecretsfor.com/runners.html

eg. runners.html ?


so when someone clicks on the domain page it will automatically open the runners page as the default homepage.

Thanks for any advice

Cheers

Using an .htaccess file, assuming your site is hosted on a server running Apache (usually unix/linux, and not Microsoft), you can write a quick 301 redirect. Here's an example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_redirecti...for_Redirection

If that's a bit too techy, then a meta-redirect, though hated by many, will work too:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_redirecti..._refresh_header

You don't need to use redirects, but you do need a .htaccess file. You can specify which files Apache should look for when serving up a directory, such as webradianc.com/ and webradiance.com/forum/, for example.

Simple use the DirectoryIndex parameter:
DirectoryIndex index.html runners.html

Notice I've specified two files. You can specify as many as you want and Apache will serve the first one it finds. So in this case, if there's just runners.html then that will be the index, but if index.html is in there too then that will display as the index instead.
