URL redirection

Have you ever played a game of "follow the leader" where you have to go where the leader goes? That's kind of like how URL redirection works.

A URL is like a web address that tells your computer where to go to find a website. It's like giving someone directions to get to your house.

Sometimes, however, a website might want to move to a new address but still want people to find it. That's where URL redirection comes in.

It's like the website has a sign that says "I moved! Follow me!" and when you click on the old address or link, it takes you to the new address automatically. Think of it like a shortcut or a detour that takes you to the new location.

This helps people find the website they are looking for even if it has moved to a new location. It's kind of like a helpful guide that makes sure everyone gets to where they need to go.
