.HTACCESS re-direction based on referer, how ?
 

The thing is .. I have some galleries which Google listed in some good positions .. but I can't just re-direct the traffic from them because they are galleries .. and the TGPS would ofcourse ban me :)

But can I somehow make a .HTACCESS file in that folder that re-directs all traffic from GOOGLE to a sponsor instead of the gallery ?

And would that be wise ?

Looks like a good idea because this should not violate the general TGP rules.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(www|directory)?\.google\.com
RewriteRule .* http://www.whereyouwantit.com [R,L]


redirect from google search and google directory

Edit:
you can tweak it a little for country specific google domains like google.ca google.de etc. etc.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://(www|directory)?\.google\.[a-z]{2,3}/
RewriteRule .* http://www.whereyouwantit.com [R,L]

this one should be OK

Thanks dude

Anothers,

It doesn't work .. if I make a .HTACCESS with the above and place it in the folder I can't load any of the HTML files in it (Not permitted)
