you need to have php tags around it. Your page should have

< ?php

//redirects the curent visitor to the URL given

//you can change the mydomain.com to your blog's address

header("Location: http://www.godaisies.com/LIS");
?>

Hi, I’m trying to do method two but instead, all the text just ends up appearing on a white page. You see it for yourself at:

Any suggestions on how I can correct this would be greatly appreciated!

I was unaware of second option. That seems to be much better options as we are diverting such traffic to Hp.
