My SharePoint website developed on Office 365 online having the default home page redirects the url from (eg. www.abc.com) to (eg. www.abc.com/SitePages/Home.aspx).

I am looking for an option/solution for taking the /SitePages/ from URL for SEO purpose so that the default home page redirects to the main url (eg. www.abc.com) , removing anything after the site name from url.

How can this be done?

  • I have a subsite and there are some sitepages. I want to have my URL xxx.com/subsite/page1 instead of xxx.com/subsite/sitepages/page1. IN reviewing your response above, there are no page folder under my subsite to move to. What should I do?

OK, I got the answer. All you need to do is copy the .aspx page from SitePages into the Pages directory, set it as the Home Page through SP Designer. The extra folders and names will disappear :)

If you don't see the Pages directory, first enable the Publishing feature on the site.

  • It is present in the "All Files" folder. You can access it via Sharepoint Designer.
