Redirecting

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Dec 05.2008

Hey, I need to redirect a website to another one..

for example if you go to [url]www.example.com[/url]

i want you to be redirected to [url]www.example1.com[/url] without hyperlinks
I know you can use meta tags like this one

[CODE]<META http-equiv=”refresh” content=”5;URL=http://www.example1.com”>[/CODE]

but the only problem is my client has used godaddy.com and used the website tonight application and i’m not familiar with the whole application thing. Any help or clarification just ask.

@bejitto101Dec 06.2008 — Is there any way you can access the html code directly? If so, then you can just insert that type of code into the head tags.

If not, you can use a htaccess redirect. Basically, you create a file called .htaccess and in the file you have something like Redirect 301 / http://www.example1.com/
.

That will redirect ALL traffic to the new site.

You can find a more detailed example and explanation here: http://www.webweaver.nu/html-tips/web-redirection.shtml

@GoverNmentauthorDec 06.2008 — i found out how to finally do it, i got into the HTML coding, but we got a new problem...

The lady has a at home make up thing, she lives in like hick town(this will be relevant later) Her main company's main page is like www.beauticontrol.com and you have to find a consultant ( which she is one of many) and to find one you have to enter your zip code, and that's where hick town comes into play. she is far away and doesn't get much traffic due to her zip code.. So the company policy is that you can't have your own website which why I was going to add keywords and a description to a website people would search for then once they click it, it automatically redirects the searcher to her company's profile for her...

@bejitto101Dec 06.2008 — So let me get this straight. You just wants a site that shows up in a search like Google, but the site actually just redirects to the companies site? Well, her profile on the companies site?

[B][SIZE="7"]HTTP/1.1 500 Server Error[/SIZE][/B]

@bejitto101Dec 08.2008 — Check your server error log file, also could you give us the coding that you are using to redirect the site?

@GoverNmentauthorDec 09.2008 — here is the code,

[CODE]<META http-equiv=”refresh” content=”5;URL=http://www.beautipage.com/debs-spa/”>[/CODE]

for some reason it doesn't seem to work, i think i found something out tho, i'm going to give it a try and see what it comes out with.

Success!
