    Hello,

    I have a dnn (09.01) site working under the domain www.mydomain.com and I have a specific page www.mydomain.com/mypage.

    Now, I would like that mysubdomain.mydomain.com was showing the content of www.mydomain.com/mypage as if it was a new webpage.

    I already configured IIS and added the alias to dnn site. However, I am not able to make that subdomain showing the mypage, it always go to the main page of www.mydomain.com.

    Is there any possibility of configuring this behavior without frames or similar?

    Many thanks in advance

      I don't know of some trick to pull this of. What would work is to create a site mysubdomain.mydomain.com within your DNN install. That site has a default home which can be a redirect to www.mydomain.com/mypage

      It is overkill, it costs space but it would work. And of course, in this scenario the alias should be removed from www.mydomain.com

        Hello,

        thank your for your reply and sorry for my late response. 

        The problem or the issue with redirection is that it is penalized by SEO, so I would like to have that configured in my site if possible without redirecting. Any idea about that?

          If you create a 301 redirect, there will not be e SEO penalty. In fact, that is how search engines expect you to organize redirects from old pages, old sites etc.
