How can I redirect a sub page of a 301 domain

[Arturo99]

Hi
I have a domain set up as a 301 at the registrar to my new domain.
But how can i redirect a particular sub page of old domain and point
that to a sub page on my new domain?
Registrar does not allow it.

Can i do it via htaccess on my new domain?
thanks
Arturo

You can either do everything via htaccess, or you can do things globally at the registrar level, but it is very unlikely you will be able to mix the two. Once you've set up the DNS to point to some physical location that is under your own control, you can redirect to your heart's content.

And the physical location has to be a fully hosted site?

The best way is to set up a 301 redirect in the htaccess of the old domain.

Another (easy way) is to use a Meta Refresh redirect in the HEAD of the old page.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://new-domain.com/page.html">

However the Meta tag method will not update SE indexing. The htaccess 301 method will.

in either case you must be hosting your own web server to redirect individual url requests.

Shared hosting is fine unless the admins restrict it.

Shared hosting

is still your web server, as opposed to a server provided by your registrar as the OP implies...

OK, I understand what you meant now.

Depends what you mean by “fully hosted”. In theory you could set up a directory whose sole purpose is to receive requests and redirect them to an entirely different server. If we’re talking about shared hosting, it’s up to the host whether there has to be an actual domain living at the first address (the one you’re redirecting away from). In fact it may be an academic distinction: if all requests for example.com are redirected to example.org, it can’t possibly make any difference whether there is a physical file corresponding to example.com/index.html.

it could be another virtual host configuration on the same machine your main site is on.
it could even specify the same document root directory so you can do all your redirects for both domains in one place...
