LinkBack URL
About LinkBacksI'm actually trying to help a friend with his cPanel. We're trying to figure out how to force the redirect feature to wait about 500ms before redirecting to another website. Is there a script or something i could use?
can you delay a redirect?

Re: can you delay a redirect?
Not specifically the actual redirect I don't think, but you could point a redirect to a simple page with a Meta refresh time that goes to the other site after a set time.

Re: can you delay a redirect?
well i'm trying to have the user stay on the page that redirects them for just half a second. This is because when google crawls the site, it skips it because the actual domain that redirects to another has no content. i wanted to flood the the first domain with keywords relating to the product i'm selling, but i want some way to have that domain wait a bit before redirecting so google has a chance to crawl the site and add it to the search results.
Re: can you delay a redirect?
A meta refresh will serve the purpose intended as Infopro mentioned. You can set the time for the redirect on that page before redirecting to the other page.
This would redirect in 1 second. Change the 1 to 5 for 5 seconds. Change the url to be the page you are redirecting to.Code:<meta HTTP-EQUIV=”REFRESH” content=”1; url=http://www.yourdomain.com/index.html”>
