    <?
header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
header( "Location: http://example.com" );
?>

    Can you create an htaccess file? If so, put this in it:
    and/or read this

    Otherwise, if you're limited to using HTML, then you can't do a 301 - you're limited to use META refresh. Which will work fine for most of your visitors, but won't do much for your search engine results or PR.
    Put this in the index.html page at your freewebs account:

    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=http://www.yournewdomain.com/">
    </head>

    didn't understand you with this code:
    
redirect 301 /index.html http://whatever.webs.com
    HTML:
    Is whatever.webs.com the address where i'm redirecting to? bcz its a .net domain....

    so http://whatever.webs.com is my new site right?

    /\ Yes. But unless you can create an htaccess file, you can't use it.
    redirect 301 /index.html [url]http://younewsitegoeshere.com[/url]
    Code (markup):

    Not if you can't create an htaccess file.

    It looks like you're stuck with meta refresh. You get what you pay for.

    Yeah, I don't think you'll be able to properly setup a redirect on that host. Use a META refresh, and add a link to the body of the page.

    That's about your best bet.

    You can also use .htaccess redirects, it's more comfortable in my opinion. :)
    Here's an article that might help you out : seobook.com/archives/001714.shtml
