How to redirect from one specific page only

As a Google Trusted street view photographer, our company is listed in Google with our website. See it here: Photo of our Google listing

The thing is, we are only allowed to give the homepage link, like www.aemotion.com. But what I want is when visitors click the link on that page only, they will be redirected to this page: http://www.aemotion.com/google-street-view-van-mooi-van/.

I know a normal htaccess redirect will redirect all trafic from the homepage and that's not what we want obviously.

Anybody an idea how to tackle this?

You can use PHP's $_SERVER variable, so if the user came from http://www.google.nl (I see that you're from the Netherlands) than redirect to that page.

So your code will be:

if($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] == 'http://www.google.nl') {
    Header('Location: /google-street-view-van-mooi-van/');
}

You could also use a specific get variable. For example: http://www.aemotion.com/?reffer=site_name. After that you can add the follow code:

if(isset($_GET['reffer'])) {
    if($_GET['reffer'] == 'site_name') {
        Header('Location: /google-street-view-van-mooi-van/';
    } else if($_GET['reffer'] == 'site_name_2') {
        Header('Location: /google-street-view-van-mooi-van/';
    }
}

This works also for multiple sites.

Hope this works!

Hopelijk werkt dit! (in Dutch)

If they pass you a $_GET variable or $_POST variable you could check for that and redirect accordingly.

if (isset($_REQUEST['external_redirect'])) {
    header("Location: /someOther/location");
    exit;
}
