copied!<p>These are the standard rewrite rules I start every project with. I use only clean URLs for all the pages (example first rule works for www.example.com/about and second rule www.example.com/product/123)</p> <pre><code><rewrite> <rules> <rule name="Rewrite default to aspx" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^$" ignoreCase="false" /> <action type="Rewrite" url="default.aspx" /> </rule> <rule name="Rewrite page to aspx" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^([a-z0-9/]+)$" ignoreCase="false" /> <action type="Rewrite" url="{R:1}.aspx" /> </rule> </rules> </rewrite> </code></pre> <p>Pages where I need to parse out the ID (this case number only) and add it to the query string I add a similar rule to the front:</p> <pre><code><rule name="Rewrite Product ID" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^product/([0-9]+)$" ignoreCase="false"/> <action type="Rewrite" url="product.aspx?id={R:1}"/> </rule> </code></pre> <p>If you want to use lower and upper case letters in the URL, set ignoreCase="true"</p> <p><strong>Edit to answer your second question plus a bonus</strong></p> <p>This rule will redirect aspx page to the clean URL:</p> <pre><code><rule name="Redirect to clean URL" stopProcessing="true"> <match url="^([a-z0-9/]+).aspx$" ignoreCase="true"/> <action type="Redirect" url="{R:1}"/> </rule> </code></pre> <p>Replace url="{R:1}" with url="{ToLower:{R:1}}" to change URL to lowercase. See below why you would want to do this.</p> <p>Also a good idea to update the Form action so that post backs don't return back to the ugly URL. Using IIS 7.5 or newer this should work:</p> <pre><code> if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.RawUrl)) form1.Action = Request.RawUrl; </code></pre> <p>or for IIS 7:</p> <pre><code> if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(Context.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URL"])) form1.Action = Context.Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_ORIGINAL_URL"]; </code></pre> <p>One more thing to keep in mind... it's a good idea to keep all URLs lower case. Mixing lower/upper case characters in the URL creates duplicate content issues for SEO/Google. For example website.com/About and website.com/about will load the same page, but Google will index them as two separate pages.</p>
