Thanks for all the advice Joshua. Appreciated! The first few items on
the list are already well underway and were mentioned only as
perspective for the redirection question.
The only place I need help is on the redirection technique. If the site
were on an Apache server, a quick editing of a .htaccess file would do
it. But, it's on a shared hosting service where I have no access to IIS
configuration parameters. Now what?
