301 redirect for my site

Recommended Posts

Howdy. I have just changed my URL from www.albertmartincufflinks.com to www.albertmartincufflinks.com.au.

I need to know how to write a 301 redirect so anyone visiting the old URL will be redirected to the new .com.au URL.

Will this also affect my Google Links and will they get updated over time without being penalised?

I get this error when I enter the code:

 

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

 

I had a redirect working when we purchased another domain (the seller did that for us) but now it stopped.

Just place the following HTML redirect code between the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags of your HTML code.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=other-web-address">

 

Hi jonsen1

 

That is not a recommended way to do redirection! You should really change it if you have it in that way. Use one of the examples above instead!

If you can't access ftp the only solution is to modify php/html files and put redirection in there. But I don't know if it is possible to edit the files without ftp access. The other solution would be to add redirect in your domain registrars control panel but it depends on where the domain was registered.
