hey guys just put together a guide that i this you will find very useful, covers pretty much every way to do a 301 redirect, check it out: How to redirect a web page
Indeed useful, thanks. I have a question on this topic: I have my main content/product pages in the root directory (i.e. xxx.com/product.htm), I then have two folders/directories for bookings and secure payments. (i.e. xxx/com/Bookings/product.htm) What I would like to do is this: have all root files automatically 301 to another domain name where I will host those pages (to get SE's going to the .com.au domain), but I would like to have my other 2 folders stay on the regular .com server (I will link back to them from the .com.au pages). Is there a way of doing this without doing a 301 redirect for each and every page?... Or am I going about this completely the wrong way...? Opinions and advice much appreciated!
replying to myself here! Is this appropriate? RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/~(.+) h-p://newserver/~$1 [R,L] changed the http as can't post links!
