This article applies only to
Windows 2008-2012 servers with
IIS7/IIS8 (sites hosted on our raptor13 or newer). It explains how to use the IIS Rewrite Module to direct incoming traffic for multiple domain name to http://www.domainname.com, a popular thing to do for SEO.
Step 1: Download the
web.config file from your site root folder.
Step 2: Open this file in your favorite text editor and insert the following redirection code inside the
<configuration> tags.
<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="Redirects to www.domain.com" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true">
<match url=".*" />
<conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^domain.*(com|net)$" />
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^(www.)?mydomain2.(com|net)$" />
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www.domain.net$" />
</conditions>
<action type="Redirect" url="http://www.domain.com/{R:0}" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
<system.webServer>
Condition Match Example:
domain.com (1st condition)
domain.net (1st condition)
www.mydomain2.com (2nd condition)
www.mydomain2.net (2nd condition)
mydomain2.com (2nd condition)
mydomain2.net (2nd condition)
www.domain.net (3rd condition)
Step 3: Save the file and upload it back to your FTP
If if the
<system.webServer> already exists in your
web.config place the code minus the <system.webServer> tags inside the existing tag structure.
