In case you have a number of domain names with different extensions and you want all of them to open precisely the same Internet site, you may have the Internet site under one of them and redirect the others. There are a number of approaches to forward one domain to another, like the so-called domain parking. If your web hosting package permits it, though, it'll be better if you host each of the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The real difference between the two is that while a domain address is hosted, you could still have content for it, set up subdomains, e mail addresses, and so forth., while with a parked domain you can't do any of these things. For instance, if you are building localized Internet sites under different country-code Internet domain names, you will be able to work on them, but in the meantime, people will be redirected to the primary website.

URL Redirector in Website Hosting

The Hepsia CP, supplied with our website hosting plans, features a URL forwarding tool that will permit you to forward any domain address or subdomain hosted inside your account to any URL - within your account or a third-party one. Setting up a new redirection is quite easy - you must pick a domain/subdomain and then type in the URL it needs to be redirected to. You can also redirect a particular subfolder only. For example, when you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you'll be able to redirect just the latter. The tool has complex options for more tech-savvy users too, such as 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 may deactivate it with a click from the same exact section of the Control Panel.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Servers

Every semi-dedicated server package which we provide will permit you to redirect any host (domain or subdomain) to a third-party URL with ease. While this can be carried out manually by setting up a system file and by including certain content to it, we shall give you a user-friendly tool in which you will only have to pick the domain/subdomain in question and to input the remote address. Our system will take care of the rest, so a few seconds later the new redirection shall be completely active. The more expert users may also make use of a number of other customizable options, such as the option to pick the redirection type (direct, match) and method (301 permanent, 302 temporary). Each of these options, and even the URL a domain is redirected to, could be changed with just a few clicks anytime. In case you no longer need a redirection, you could delete it just as quickly.
