Alias redirects route URL requests for nonexistent URLs to a valid target URL. The target URL for an alias redirect can be a page in the current web initiativechannel(s) as well as an external URL. Redirects allow you to make available simple, easy to remember URLs to direct visitors to pages on your website in cases where your tree structure is complicated or the target URL contains a difficult to remember path structure. URL aliases can only be a single identifier that contains no hierarchical structure. The address of the alias URL is relative to the root URL of your website. For the website www.gxsoftware.com,, for example, any alias URL you create can only be reached in a browser via a URL that adds the identifier to the root address, www.gxsoftware.com/<alias> for example, where <alias> is an identifier such as "Products", "Services", "Developer Support" and so forth.
