I have redesigned a site from .asp to .html files. It is hosted on GoDaddy which does not support .htaccess.

Does anyone know how to set up a 301 redirect on Godaddy?

If they don't support .htaccess, there is probably not a lot you can do other than changing to a hosting company that does. Is the site hosted on a Windows or Linux server? When you say .html pages, are they completely static? Does the host allow you to specify a custom 404 page? (For the latter, you could point the 404 page to a PHP/ASP script which would do the redirecting and set the right HTTP headers).
