In case you have a lot of domain names with different extensions and you need all of them to open the very same website, you can have the website under one of them and forward the rest. There are a number of methods to forward one domain name to another, like the so-called domain parking. When your web hosting package deal allows it, though, it will be better if you host each of the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The main 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, etc., while with a parked domain you cannot do any of those things. As an example, if you're building localized websites under several country-code Internet domain names, you'll be able to work on them, but in the meantime, people shall be redirected to the main website.

URL Redirector in Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, included with our Linux hosting packages, provides a URL redirection tool that will enable you to forward any domain name or subdomain hosted in your account to any URL - within your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is extremely simple - you have to pick a domain/subdomain and then input the URL it needs to be redirected to. You may also forward a certain subfolder only. As an illustration, when you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you may forward just the latter. The tool has advanced functions for more tech-savvy users also, including the possibility to select the redirection type - 301 (permanent redirection) or 302 (temporary redirection), the redirection method - direct or match, and so forth. If you no longer need a redirection, you are able to deactivate it with a mouse click from the very same section of the Control Panel.
