404 error in a REST WCF service

I created my first WCF REST service the other day and was getting a 404 error when I deployed the service to our server.  After some research I found the solution here:

I needed to add:

Factory="System.ServiceModel.Activation.WebServiceHostFactory"

to MyService.svc <%@ ServiceHost markup.

There is also a very good write up on WCF REST service design here:
