Whats the fastest way to do a redirect?
 

I want to put a blank redirect page between my gallery ads and the sponsor, so the sponsor doesnt see my ads and steal my text and ideas, and show it to newbies to give them ideas (its happened twice).

But I dont want a redirect thats going to hang and then the surfers get tired or annoyed and leave.

So whats the best way to put a redirect, or just a barrier between my galleries and the sponsor?

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.

i use 403

an Easy Button from Staples.

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.

name it whatever .php

awesome thanks guys :thumbsup

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.

IS THAT LIKE AN EXIT CONSOLE OR SOMESHIT?

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

rofl, I almost choked on that one :P

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
