# Redirect to an external website with Remix

Remix gives us a useful `redirect` helper function which lets us quickly create a new redirect Response object. You can use this function to redirect from a loader or action to another app route and another website. Let's see how.

```ts
export async function action() {
  return redirect("https://google.com");
}
```

That's it. Just return a `redirect` response with the URL you want to redirect. You can also pass a `status` code as a second argument, which defaults to `302`.

You can do the same from a loader:

```ts
export async function loader() {
  return redirect("https://google.com");
}
```
