Redirecting sitelinks to the homepage?

    Hi all,

    Does anyone know how I can redirect all backlinks to internal pages onto my homepage? I'm running some experiments and have purchased a domain that has 50,000+ backlinks to internal pages. I want to redirect these to the homepage and then 301 the homepage onto another domain so that I can test any success or failure that this approach has on ranks and site traffic.

    The kicker is that the internal pages no longer exist as I have simply purchased the domain, so I figure the only way to do it is to use the .htaccess file to somehow redirect backlinks to internal pages onto the homepage before I 301 the domain elsewhere.

    Unfortunately I'm just learning how to use .htaccess and am having real trouble finding anything on the web regarding a way to do the above.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    i suggest you install wordpress.
    implement this if you are know to wordpress
    and add a html redirect for home page in its 404 template file.

    and create a page template with html redirect to your website for a static page.
    use that static page as your home page
    thats it
    now when a user visits your page 404 page will redirect him to home page and home page will redirect him to your website.
