Web Page Redirection
There are many reasons that you might need to redirect a visitor
to a new web page. For example, you have been using a free web
site for some time. As traffic to the site starts to build up you
decide to get a paid site and your own domain name. It would be a
waste not to capture the trafic that you have been working hard to
attract. You want to direct all traffic that comes to the old site
to your new site.
You can have the redirection occur automatically or manually.
For automatic redirection you place the following code between the
<head> and </head> tags of the index.html file at your
old web site:
The number zero (0) after the word "content" means the visitors
will be directed to the new site without delay. If you want the
visitors to read some important information before being
redirected, replace zero with a number representing the time
delay in seconds.
You can combine automatic and manual redirection at the old
site. Your index.html file at the old site would look like this:
