Day 85 - What code do I use to redirect my POB?

I have had a few people ask me how they can redirect their POB.

First you are going to need a bit of webspace. Look online for a free domain, a free forwarding domain or buy a website very cheaply if you want your own personal domain space.

There are two main ways - one is on the hosting provider search for "Forward my Domain" - and there will be somewhere that you can enter that long POB address to do just that.

What I think is a LOT nicer is to have a small page that introduces you first, then sends you the brochure. The pages are written in HTML - you can google all the important stuff about this or just find a page that has been made for you.

Then, you want to add this line of code in the head of the page:

The number "5" determins how many seconds it will stay for and the URL is the long long link that AVON have given us for our online brochures.

I hope this helps some people who have asked.

Mine is up at: www.essex-reps.com/yvonne where you can see what I mean about having a page that stays for 5 seconds...
