  1. In Apache conf, load mod_rewrite: 
    LoadModule rewrite_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_rewrite.so

    or, simply create symlink /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/rewrite.load on Ubuntu.
  2. In directory conf, set AllowOverride: 
    <Directory /var/www/html>
	    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
	    Require all granted
	    AllowOverride All
</Directory>

  3. Create .htaccess file: 
    Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^Google$ https://www.google.com [R=302,NC,L]

    where NC means case-insensitive match, L means this is the last rule, no more rules will be processed (if there are more rules following the current one).


See documentation.
