URL redirection permits you to redirect targeted traffic from one website to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain name by parking it when the domain is virtually unusable, a URL redirection is possible only if the domain name is hosted, meaning that you'll still be able to set up entirely functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain address in question, although it won't be accessible directly. If you currently have an Internet site, for instance, but you need to launch one or several localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you shall be able to work on them without a problem. In case a site visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they will be sent to the existing site. That way, you'll not miss potential customers while developing the localized websites.
URL Redirector in Web Hosting
With the point-and-click forwarding tool, that's included in our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, you will be able to redirect any of your domain addresses and subdomains no matter the Linux web hosting service that you've chosen. With simply several clicks, you can easily set up a new redirection even if you have not used a hosting account before, as our tool is incredibly user-friendly. For a standard redirection, you'll just need to select a domain/subdomain from a drop-down menu, to enter the new URL, and then to save the progress. The more proficient users can edit other options too - the redirection type (permanent/temporary), the method (direct/match) and the folder where this forwarding shall be enabled (the main domain folder or a specific subfolder). Any forwarding that you've created may be deleted with just a click whenever you want.
URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Servers
Every single semi-dedicated server plan that we provide will allow you to forward any host (domain or subdomain) to a third-party URL effortlessly. While this can be performed manually by setting up a system file and by adding specific content to it, we will provide you with a user-friendly tool in which you will only have to pick the domain/subdomain in question and to enter the remote address. Our system will take care of everything else, so a couple of seconds later the new redirection shall be fully active. The more advanced users could also make use of a couple 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 forwarded to, may be altered with a few mouse clicks anytime. When you no longer require a redirection, you can delete it just as easily.
