My website has a few pages that are still "under construction" and I want to go online.
What is the best practice to redirect all HREF links to a common "under construction" page?
Can it be done using canonicalization by including multiple link=rel tags inside the head of the under construction page for all the incomplete pages or are there any simpler methods?

The simplest solutions:
- Don't add (or hide) the navigation links to those pages.
Add a simple redirect method in your header so that the link sends you to the home/splash or another page.
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://example.com/" />FTP your site so that it's "in place online", but password protect it so that you can see it online while you finish working on it. On an Apache server you would use .htaccess and .htpasswd files to accomplish this.
Finish those pages before you go public.
I understand that you are excited about getting your website online, but having the "under construction" pages is going to keep people away instead of bringing more people in. Your page content is what gets people to "stick around" and if there isn't anything there.... there isn't a reason for them to be there either. Don't misunderstand me, no website is ever really done. You want to be constantly adding and editing to improve what you have. This is what brings people in. But, you should avoid having them land on a page that's empty.
