In case you have a number of domain names with different extensions and you would like all of them to open the same Internet site, you could have the website under one of them and forward the others. There are a number of methods to forward one domain to another, like the so-called domain parking. When your website hosting plan allows it, though, it shall be better if you host each of the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The difference between the two is that while a domain address is hosted, you may still have content for it, set up subdomains, e-mail addresses, etc., while with a parked domain you are unable to do any of these things. For example, if you're building localized websites under several country-code domains, you will be able to work on them, but in the meantime, visitors will be redirected to the main Internet site.
URL Redirector in Shared Hosting
Our company offers a convenient and extremely simple-to-use tool for creating a URL forwarding, so if you have a shared hosting account with us, you can take full advantage of it, if needed. Any domain name or subdomain hosted within the account could be forwarded, so you'll just need to choose the one you need from a drop-down menu, to decide if the main folder or a subfolder will be redirected and to type the new web address, no matter if it's pointing to a different website in your account or to a website on a remote hosting server. The redirection shall be enabled almost instantaneously. In case you are more knowledgeable, you'll have a number of advanced options to pick from as well - the redirection method (match or direct), the type (301 Permanent or 302 Temporary) and so on. All of the redirections will be listed in the exact same section, so in case you do not need a certain one anymore, you can cancel it with a click.
URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server offers come with a very useful tool which will provide you with an automated and simple way to forward any of your domain addresses to an alternative URL. While this is commonly done by creating a special file within the domain folder and by typing specific content in it, our tool will allow you to choose a domain/subdomain from a drop-down list and to type in the needed remote web address. Our system will do the rest and the redirection shall be active in seconds. If you're more tech-savvy, you may choose a range of more advanced options also, among them the redirection method (direct, match) and the redirection type (temporary, permanent). You may even redirect a specific folder instead of the root domain. You will be able to edit these settings anytime, as well as to delete an active redirection from the very same section in which you have created it to begin with.
