Some alternative ways to redirect as well if you are doing it from another webhost and/or scripts:
If you need to redirect from a PHP script:
<?
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
Header( "Location: http://www.new-url.com" );
?>
If you need to redirect from an ASP script (VBScript):
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
Response.Status="301 Moved Permanently"
Response.AddHeader "Location","http://www.new-url.com/"
%>
If you need to redirect from an ASP.NET script:
<script runat="server">
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently";
Response.AddHeader("Location","http://www.new-url.com");
}
</script>
If you need to redirect from a ColdFusion script:
<.cfheader statuscode="301" statustext="Moved permanently">
<.cfheader name="Location" value="http://www.new-url.com">
If you need to redirect from a JSP script:
<%
response.setStatus(301);
response.setHeader( "Location", "http://www.new-url.com/" );
response.setHeader( "Connection", "close" );
%>
If you need to redirect from a PERL (CGI) script:
$q = new CGI;
print $q->redirect("http://www.new-url.com/");
