    Looking for safe way to forward hits

    I have many old pages that are indexed but do not convert. I would like to keep the search listing for the pages but move the traffic to another page.

    What solution can you recommend?


    Thanks for your help.

      Not a normal redirect. ;)

          A normal htaccess redirect will affect how the SE's view and list your pages. You have to create a folder with it's own htaccess file in it and point all your outgoing links to that folder. The page remains the same with the exception of the outlinks (no follow works with this to stop the SE's from hitting your redirects).

          Example:

          Say IO created a folder called GFY.
          htaccess file inside should read:

          Redirect 301 http://yoursite.com/GFY/index.htm http://whateversite.com

          Your page links you want to redirect should point to http://yoursite.com/GFY/

          You can also take advantage of this page by turning it into a country sort at the same time by using this code instead of the previous example:

          RewriteEngine On
          RewriteCond %{ENV:GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE} ^(RU|PL)$
          RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://whateversite.com [L]
          Redirect 301 http://yoursite.com/GFY/index.htm http://whateversite.com


          Hope this works for you.

              Will the spiders recognize the server response?

                Thanks for the tip!

                Drop the new .htaccess file in the folder with nice search engine listing. Add "no follow" to meta tags and it should be a clean redirect?
