or, you might try .htaccess files, if you have access to them. if you don't know if you can use them, ask your sysadmin.

here's a tutorial on how you could use them for this:

If your links already link to a page you will be using in the future, you could just put this into your <head> tags </head>:
<Meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="1; URL=http://www.addressgoeshere.com">

And that will redirect that page to wherever. Content="1 is the amount of seconds before redirecting.

When the pages are ready just remove the above code and the referring link stays on the page.
