How to 301 redirect an entire website to a single page of a different domain

[deadhippo]

For a normal site redirect I can add the following line of code to the .htaccess file:


Redirect 301 / http://www.NEWSITE.com/

so i thought that if I used:


Redirect 301 / http://www.NEWSITE.com/SPECIALPAGE/

that it would redirect all pages to
http://www.NEWSITE.com/SPECIALPAGE/

but the results were not quite as expected.

I searched and searched Google but this doesn't seem to be a high demand need.

Does anyone know how to redirect an entire website to a single page of another website using .htaccess (other methods also welcome).

Hi,

Try this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://www.NEWSITE.com/SPECIALPAGE/ [L,R=301]

Thanks. Perfect.

Just as a (faster, lighter, less resource intensive) alternative:

RedirectMatch 301 (.*) http://www.newdomain.tld/newpage.ext
