Hi ,

       Our old hosting service is closing down in June, so using X5 I have made

a new website with a new host . At the momment most of the traffic still goes to the old site when they do a google search.

Googles Webmaster tools tell me I should do a 301 redirect to redirect all traffic to the new web site address..

Can someone explain ( in a language a newbie can follow) how I do this 301 redirect

or any other way to make search engines divert traffic from the old address to the new one

Regards

Don

Hi Don just insert in your (INDEX.HTML) header of the old site:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0;url=http://www.frankscybercafe.com">

Where it says my Cyber Cafe put your "NEW" website then everyone should be redirected to your new site..... If you want me to set this up for you contact me below......
