+## Redirects in GitLab Pages
+
+Since you cannot use any custom server configuration files, like `.htaccess` or
+any `.conf` file for that matter, if you want to redirect a web page to another
+location, you can use the [HTTP meta refresh tag][metarefresh].
+
+Some static site generators provide plugins for that functionality so that you
+don't have to create and edit HTML files manually. For example, Jekyll has the
+[redirect-from plugin](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-redirect-from).
