Wordpress: Redirecting visitors from image url to post url - GoFuckYourself.com

C.Carnato · 05-10-2013, 05:33 AM

Hello my friends.

I would like to redirect visitors coming directly to my image url from stumbleupon

eg. wp-content/uploads/2012/01/thepicturename.jpg

to the the post

eg. 2012/correspondingpost/

This is just for a few pictures that can be done individually, not a catch all solution.

Is there a simple solution for a simple guy like myself?

Wouldn't SU have an issue with this kind of thing? Can't imagine it being the best practice.

Well I would not imagine so, this is content that was not submitted by me. Content is usually submitted via post url, however the way it is in a few cases people have submitted content directly linking to the image, which in the end would mean image leeching on part of stumbleupon.

There really is nothing in it for me if I have 250k visits to a picture if i can't show them my beautiful ads.

That's a good way to get blacklisted by SU and lose all your visitors from them.

Getting traffic from SU is somehow very hard for me compared to other sources like tumblr etc.

Is that it?
