In case you have a lot of domain names with different extensions and you need all of them to open exactly the same Internet site, you could have the Internet site under one of them and forward all the rest. There are various methods to redirect one domain name to another, including the so-called domain parking. When your website hosting plan permits it, though, it will be better if you host all the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The primary difference between the two is that while a domain name is hosted, you may still have content for it, create subdomains, email addresses, and so forth., while with a parked domain you can't do any of these things. As an illustration, if you're building localized Internet sites under different country-code Internet domain names, you'll be able to work on them, but in the meantime, visitors shall be redirected to the main Internet site.

URL Redirector in Cloud Web Hosting

The Hepsia CP, supplied with our Linux cloud web hosting packages, features a URL forwarding tool which will allow you to forward any domain or subdomain hosted within your account to any URL - in your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is very easy - you must pick a domain/subdomain and then enter the URL it has to be forwarded to. You could also forward a specific subfolder only. As an example, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you are able to forward just the latter. The tool has advanced features for more tech-savvy users as well, including the feature to choose the redirection type - 301 (permanent redirection) or 302 (temporary redirection), the redirection method - direct or match, etc. If you no longer require a redirection, you are able to deactivate it with a mouse click from the same section of the CP.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server offers include a very handy tool that'll supply you with an automated and uncomplicated way to forward any of your domain names to another URL. While this is commonly done by creating a special file within the domain folder and by entering specific content in it, our tool will permit you to pick a domain/subdomain from a drop-down list and to type the needed remote web address. Our system will do the rest and the forwarding will be enabled within seconds. If you're more tech-savvy, you'll be able to select a variety of more advanced options too, such as the redirection method (direct, match) and the redirection type (temporary, permanent). You can even redirect a certain folder rather than the root domain. You'll be able to modify these settings anytime, as well as to delete an active redirection from the same exact section where you have created it to start with.
