Whats the fastest way to do a redirect?

**FuqALot** · 03-23-2006, 07:29 AM

I use php for this.

Then I link from my pages to the sponsor by linking to: redir.php?sponsorname
Redir.php has an array with sponsornames and sites and then redirs to the right site. Your sponsor will then see the redir.php site as the ref.

php header: location?

btw: that sucks that someone is showing your pages as a sample to help others without your permission. I wouldnt like that at all, nor would I do it.

PHP Code:

<?php
header("Location: http://www.yoursite.com");
exit;
?>

name it whatever .php

I use 404 for redirection. I'm not much into servers and stuff but I was told so by an apache administrator

if you do header redirect, it will still carry the url, so the sponsor can still go see the text. You need to hide the referring url which i'm not sure how to do.

no that's how in php you do a header redirect, where the user won't see the redirect, the other way is with a meta refresh.

.htaccess is faster

Redirect /links_in/001/ http://url.com
Redirect /links_in/002/ http://url.com

The only way to hide the referring url is to use a meta refresh on a landing page.

Are you hiding something from the sponsor?

Java script will usually not show the referer
