Want Page Title to Lead to Different URL

    I am trying to ramp up my Freelance blog and want to be very professional but I don't know how to make a page title go straight to another site. It looks really dumb and amateurish the way it is now.

    I can't post a live link yet but I would really appreciate it if you would take a look and tell me what I can do. http://internetmarketingreview.org/blog

    I looked at the site in question. I don't think I understand fully what you are trying to do. I did notice that you have multiple .org folders and blog folders. Can you be a bit more specific. I don't follow this "I don't know how to make a page title go straight to another site"

    off the top of my head I can't imagine a scenario where you would want to do this.

    For instance, the page at the top that says, "Freelancing Jobs" I want to go directly to another blog where I will have job listings. The way it is now the only thing I can do is add a link to that blog in the page I created that says, "Freelancing Jobs."

    Does that make more sense? And yes, I do have many blogs on the same domain.

    Thank you, Nigel. I AM talking about a post but that is also how to create a page. Anyway, surprisingly I understood everything said about the hack except the part about the value box. There is no option in the writing screen of a post that is called "value"

    When you are creating a post scroll all the way down to the "custom fields" Its under advanced options. You will see key and value.

    SNIP: "Now, whenever you feel like let your post title leave your blog and point someplace else, just scroll down in your post writing screen, create or select a custom key named url1 or title_url or url_title and put that external URL in value box."

    Make sense?
