How to redirect link?

Question

I need redirect website A to website B but only main domain, keep the rest.

For example:

http://google.com/hello redirect to: http://bing.com/hello

Only change google.com to bing.com

This is code I am using but it redirect all.

<?php
header("Location: http://bing.com/hello".$_GET["tid"]);
?>

I have many keywords, so I can't redirect manually. Please help me ! Thank you ! Sorry for my poor English !

Do you have control over your server? Google "rewrite engine". — Floris, Mar 03 '14 at 02:59
See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/286004/hidden-features-of-mod-rewrite - come back if you still have questions after that. — Floris, Mar 03 '14 at 03:01

Add the following lines to the .htaccess file at the root of your old domain:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^olddomain.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.olddomain.com$
RewriteRule (.*)$ http://www.newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

This will direct everything from your olddomain.com to newdomain.com. The $1 ensures that "everything after the root" is preserved exactly as it was before. The response code 301 means "permanent redirect" - it tells the browser making the request "we have moved". The L means "this is the last statement in the processing" - so no further rules get processed for something that matched the RewriteConditions.

You have to make sure that mod_rewrite is enabled. This usually involves checking the httpd.conf file, making sure the correct line is uncommented, and restarting your server.
