What are the methods and best practices for URL Rewriting (Masking URL) in ASP.NET 4.0?

We have an ASP.NET 4 Website and when testing on the client he wanted to hide or simplify our URL addresses, meaning he wants querystrings and url paths of the server to hide.

How can I achieve something like this in ASP.NET 4 Web Forms?

Thank you.
