How to redirect users to another page?

I need to redirect users that visit a certain page without providing specific parameters in a query string. How to redirect users to another page the right way? So that the search engines would not penalize me for it.

<?php
/* Redirect browser */
header("Location: http://www.google.com");
 
/* Make sure that code below does not get executed when we redirect. */
exit;
?>

Instead of http://www.google.com, you can write your own URL where you want to redirect your page.

if($condition){
 header('Location: http://example.com');

}

<?php
    Header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently"); 
    Header("Location: http://www.new-url.com");
    exit();
?>

The moved permanently is what helps with search engines.
