URL redirection enables you to redirect targeted traffic from one website to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain address by parking it when the domain is sort of unusable, a URL redirection is possible provided that the domain address is hosted, meaning that you will still be able to create entirely functional subdomains and e mail addresses or even to have content for the domain in question, although it shall not accessible directly. If you have a site, for instance, but you want to launch one or several localized sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them without any problem. In case a visitor opens any one of the new domain names, however, they shall be sent to the existing site. In this way, you will not miss customers while creating the localized sites.

URL Redirector in Shared Hosting

If you host your sites with us and you have a shared hosting package deal, you will be able to use our URL redirection tool to forward the website visitors from any domain and subdomain, or from a subfolder under any of them, to an alternative Internet address. This process takes a number of easy steps via an user-friendly interface, so you can set up a redirection even in case you have no previous experience. You'll simply have to pick a domain name or a subdomain using a drop-down list, to choose the folder in which the redirection will be created (the root folder or a subfolder), and then to type in the URL where the site visitors have to be forwarded to. For more advanced users, there are also options to select the redirection type (permanent or temporary) and the method (direct or match). Any forwarding which you set up may be deactivated from the very same section of the CP, if you do not require it anymore.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Each semi-dedicated server package deal we offer will enable you to forward any host (domain or subdomain) to a third-party URL without any difficulty. While this can be performed manually by setting up a system file and by including particular content to it, we will offer you a user-friendly tool where you will simply have to select the domain/subdomain in question and to input the remote address. Our system will handle the rest, so a couple of seconds later the new redirection will be fully active. The more experienced users may also make use of a couple of other customizable options, like the option to choose the redirection type (direct, match) and method (301 permanent, 302 temporary). Each of these options, along with the URL a domain is redirected to, can be altered with a few clicks at any time. When you no longer require a redirection, you may delete it just as fast.
