: URL Redirection.

AmoebaGuy
Does anyone know of a good URL redirection service, preferably free, that I can use for my site?
My current one 'OnTheWeb' has shut down and my 'free' URL is pants.
Znet has all kinds of nasty pop ups......

Any suggestions.
Cheers.
Paul.

I'd say www.dot.tk, it's free, easy to remember and add free.
Actually there is one pop-up, but you can disable it in your settings.

A problem with .tk is that it seems to go down a lot (like a couple of days per month).
It also puts your site into a frame (filling the screen) which means that the refresh button doesn't work properly.

However it is free, so you've lost nothing.

Yeah, I never did find a good re-direction service so I bit the bullet and bought a proper domain. A co.uk doesn't break the bank and after a year in production I thought it was about time anyway.

Just use an HTML redirect... Just a 404 page that redirects people automatically... No index will force a 404. My site's 404 redirects to the index immediately. Go ahead, test it out... If you want, I'll send ya the HTML code snippet.

That would be cool Bowser, I didn't know you could do that.
PM me the HTML if you wanna.

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Error: 404</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#ffffff">

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://www.GameCheetz.com/">
</BODY>
</HTML>

Now, you obviously wanna change that URL to your own... I saved this as 404.html & uploaded it as is.

EDIT: On my site, all my comics have back, home & next... When a comic is the latest, it's next link causes a 404 redirecting them home because of this. That little line of code is a key part of my site.
