How to redirect blog traffic from one url to another

This post explains how to redirect your blogger (blogspot) blog/website traffic from one url(address) to another:-

Suppose you have a blog(abc.blogspot.com) which have some decent amount of traffic and you are not going to use that blog anymore(if it is banned from placing ads due to some reasons by some affiliate programmes like adsense,adbrite,etc)

.

But,you don't want to waste that traffic.So, with this redirection process, the old blog visitors will be redirected automatically to your new blog address or your own domain name if you have registered it(something like abc.com) so,your traffic won't be waste

So, how to do this?

If you are using a NEW BLOGGER TEMPLATE, do this:-

1.Sign into your blogger dashboard.

2.Click on the layout link>Edit html

3.Copy the below html code and Paste it anywhere between the head tags.[look at the below screenshot]

Don't forget to replace the newblogaddress in the code with your destination url(address)

4.SAVE THE CHANGES.

If you are using a CLASSIC BLOGGER TEMPLATE,follow this:-

1.Sign in to your blogger dashboard

2.Click on the template link next to your blog name.

3.Copy the below code and paste it below the head tag as shown in the below screenshot

Don't forget to replace the newblogaddress in the code with your destination url(address)

4.SAVE THE CHANGES.

That's it! Now, all your old blog traffic will be redirected to your new address

How to add a "Email me" link in your blog/webpage?

This post explains how to add a "Email me" link in your blog/webpage.
With this,if some one clicks on the "Email me" link, the visitor's microsoft outlook express will be open by default.If he/she wants to send via other services like gmail,yahoo,rediff,etc..they will simply copy your email address from the outlook express and send.[see the below screenshot]

So,how to do this?
Simple! look at the below example.
If your email is some abc[at]yahoo[dot]com, here is the html code to add

The output will be like this[click on it to check]

Email me

[you can change the 'anchor text'(Email me) to your own words like "contact us",etc]

Sign in to your blogger dashboard>layout>add a page element>html/javascript
and paste the above code(don't forget to change the email address in the above code with your's) and SAVE THE CHANGES.

But,why are we adding this clickable email links instead of giving your visitors directly your email address?
Good question!If you give it directly,then search engines,etc crawl it and there are more chances for the spammers to find your email and your personal emails are flooded with full of spam which is not good
