How to have multiple aliases for a controller action

I have a Search controller with a generic Search() action that takes several parameters and has a bunch of logic. I'd like to call this from other controllers without having a lot of copy/paste code.

I'd like to call this action from these different urls/controllers.actions.

/Search/Search?text=mySearchText /User/SearchTransactions?type=purcahse /Transactions/UserSearch?UserId=1

I could move the method to a baseController but I'd have to call /Search on each controller and I'd like to have them all named differently.

you already have your solution man put it in base controller and decorate it with actionName attribute

like

    [ActionName("Search1")]
    public ActionResult SearchText(string text) {
        return View();
    }

  [ActionName("Search2")]
    public ActionResult SearchType(string Type) {
        return View();
    }

  [ActionName("Search3")]
    public ActionResult searchId(int ID) {
        return View();
    }

now you can do like

/search1
/search2
/search3
