PHP redirects and meta tags

I have a retail website. The domain for that website is the name of my company. In an attempt to increase online traffic to my site, I bought out the domain name of a common search term with the idea that I would just redirect any clicks there to my main site.

So, when I redirect using PHP, do I make new meta, title, header, etc tags on the landing page or do I just redirect without any of that?

You don't need those on the page where you do header() or meta-refresh. But there may be SEO reasons why you want to redirect to a landing page with different information that the home page.
