    What's the easiest way to redirect www.examplesite.com to my affiliate link?

    Can't I just go into my redirects in the cpanel and point the examplesite.com to my affiliate link?

    I've read that you need to create some .htaccess file. Is that necessary??

    Thanks

    This probably isn't the right thread for this.

    Did you even search google?

    -There are many ways you can do this. It sounds like you might need the easiest way. Try using the redirect function within your domain registrar.
    -You could also insert this code into your index.html

    <meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=YOUR URL HERE">

    - if you are persistent on the .htaccess way around, google "301 redirect"

    You can use redirect function in your registrar account.

    If you want to use script like what ramatgan posted, I suggest you use php header, it's better than meta refresh.

    you can use html file and php file for redirection .. .htaccess file is useful when you need to redirect the entire domain.. but if you want to redirect a particular link then you must use html file. html redirection code given above.
