Simple answer is you don't. You change all the links on your site then configure .htaccess files to understand the new URIs and translate them to actual URLs. Since 'start' and 'about' are not indicated in the current URL at all it won't be especially simple. The first step is to update your system so that it uses page=start, page=about rather than the numbers, otherwise you will have to use the number in your URL or do some searching on arrival at the page.

 

Once you have done that, simply change where you output URLs to the new format and use a .htaccess file something along these lines...

 

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URL} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URL} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /index.php?page=$1
