There are a number of ways to forward visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is oftentimes recommended. In contrast to parking a domain address, a URL forwarding can be done only if the domain in question is hosted. What this means in simple terms is that you can still open any content if you have a direct link to it and you can set up e mail addresses or subdomains and use them. This sort of function has lots of practical uses - if you decide to switch your domain, you can redirect the traffic, but the emails with the old one will still be active whenever you are communicating with customers or partners. When you have two similar websites and you need to rebuild one of them, you can redirect the traffic to the other site so that you can avoid losing potential clients, while you shall still be able to access the administration area for the first Internet site and work on it.
URL Redirector in Cloud Hosting
With the point-and-click redirection tool, that's included in our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to redirect all of your domain names and subdomains regardless of the Linux cloud hosting that you have selected. With just a couple of clicks, you can create a new redirection even if you never used a web hosting account before, because our tool is very user-friendly. For a standard redirection, you'll only have to pick a domain/subdomain from a drop-down menu, to input the new URL, and then to save the change. The more advanced users can alter other options too - the forwarding type (permanent/temporary), the method (direct/match) and the folder where this redirection shall be enabled (the main domain folder or a particular subfolder). Any redirection which you have created can be deleted with only a mouse click at any time.

If you're more advanced, you could also decide if the type of the redirection must be permanent or temporary and if the method should be direct or match. These options can be altered at any time as well as the URL, so you will not need to create a new redirection if you want to adjust something. Naturally, when you no longer need a particular domain or subdomain to be forwarded, you are able to delete the redirection effortlessly.
