    A 301 redirect is executed server-side which means that the visitor is never aware that they have been redirected, there is no time delay like with javascript


    To use the following PHP code you must change the file extension of the file you will be using to index.php instead of index.html.
    Now put the following code into your new index.php page, put ONLY this code, no need for <head>, <body> or any other tags. Change the page domain to the url you will redirect to.

    <?php 
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");  
header("Location: http://www.newdomain.com/page.html");  
exit();  
?>
    PHP:

    Even cleaner would be to just do this:

    <?php
header("Location: http://www.newdomain.com/page.html", 1, 301);
exit;
?>
