Redirects allow you to make a specific web page redirect to another page and display the contents of that page. This way you can make a page with a long URL accessible by a page which has a shorter and easier to remember URL.
For example: Since
http://www.domain.com/folder1/foldera/longfilename_with_underscores.html is hard to remember, you can make http://www.domain.com/filename.html redirect to the other URL.
This way users do not have to remember the longer URL or search through your web site to get to the page they wish to access.
