NowCreate an .htaccess file in your public_html directory with the following codes:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?domain.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .(gif|jpg)$ – [F]

Where domain.com is your domain absolutely.

Similarly, you can Place this up to allow only a list of multiple domains:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?domain1.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?domain2.com.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .(gif|jpg)$ – [F]

How to forward a website to into another url

the simplest to understand is to use php., but  There are several ways to accomplish this task,

To do this, you need to create the page that will do the forwarding.  This can be any page, as long as it ends in “.php”.  If you are trying to redirect a domain, you will create “index.php” inside the public_html directory.

Now Once you decide which page you will use, then create a file and enter the following text:

<?php
header(“Location: http://whereyouwant.com/to/go.html“);
?>

Where http://whereyouwant.com/to/go.html is the location that you want the page to forward to.  You can use local values, ie: /page.html, or full urls as in the above example (http://..etc.)

---

Another for accomplishing this is to use an .htaccess file in the public_html directory.  Sample contents:

Redirect 301 / http://whereyouwant.com/to/go.html

which it will generate a similar result as the index.php Location redirect.
