This is a very common question, this is how it's done.

HTML Code:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.eshopforums.com">

This line will instantly redirect you to another page/site if your choice. To add a delay before redirecting the page change "0" to the number of seconds to wait before redirecting.

Lawrence, how do you do this via a clickable image please?

You mean you want an image that is clickable and takes you to another site? If so this is how it's done.

HTML Code:

<a href="http://www.eshopforums.com"><img src="http://www.yourimagehost.com/images/image.jpg" border="0"></a>

You can also add an alt tag to the above line with extra information to help those who are visually impaired using special software and aid search engines to know what the image and link is about.
