 How to Redirect a Web Page in HTML

To tell search engines and website visitors that your web page has permanently moved to a newlocation with an equivalent content use a 301 redirect. The code “301” is interpreted as “movedpermanently”. (Learn more about

How to redirect to another URL

The simplest way to redirect to another URL is to use an

HTML <meta>

tag with the http-equivparameter set to “refresh”. The

content

attribute sets the delay before the browser redirects theuser to the new web page. To redirect immediately, set this parameter to “0” seconds for the

content

attribute.

If you want your redirection to occur in an exact time, just specify your preferred parameter (inseconds) for the

content

. Let’s consider an example, where we set "7" seconds as redirection time.

Some browsers don't render the <meta> refresh tag correctly, so before the next page loads,the user can see a fl ash as a page.

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; url='https://www.w3docs.com'" />

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="7; url='https://www.w3docs.com'" />


Some old browsers don't refresh correctly when you add a quick link. In that case, you can add an

anchor

link to let the user follow.
