I've tried many options in .htaccess without success. What I want to do is this:
I have Wordpress residing in its own folder, like this: site.com/folder
I want all users visiting site.com to be redirected to site.com/folder/page
but in such a way that the URL doesn't change in the browser. All other URLs, such as site.com/folder
and site.com/folder/page1 etc
shouldn't be affected.
How to do this, in as SEO-friendly way as possible?
Thanks everyone.

You can't redirect a user to a other page from serverside without to show this to the use.
But if you need, you can use the HTML tag <frame>
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_frame.asp
But the bad side with this is the use always will be show "site.com" and not the real page.
But I think the best way is to proxy the result, in Apache you can do this by something like this.
RewriteEngine ON
RewriteRule ^/$ folder/page/index.php [L]
