URL redirection enables you to redirect targeted traffic from one Internet site to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain address by parking it when the domain is virtually unusable, a URL redirection is possible provided that the domain is hosted, meaning that you will still be able to set up 100% functional subdomains and e-mail addresses or even to have content for the domain address in question, although it won't be accessible directly. If you currently have a site, for instance, but you want to launch one or a variety of localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them with no problem. If a site visitor opens any of the new domain names, however, they shall be forwarded to the existing Internet site. This way, you won't miss potential clients while building the localized Internet sites.

URL Redirector in Cloud Web Hosting

If you host your websites with us and you have a cloud web hosting package deal, you will be able to use our URL redirection tool to redirect the site visitors from any domain name and subdomain, or from a subfolder under any of them, to a different web address. The process takes a few basic steps through an easy-to-use interface, so you may create a redirection even in case you have no previous experience. You'll simply need to pick a domain or a subdomain via a drop-down list, to pick the folder in which the redirection will be created (the root folder or a subfolder), and then to enter the URL where the site visitors should be redirected to. For more advanced users, there are also options to pick the redirection type (permanent or temporary) and the method (direct or match). Any redirection that you create could be deactivated from the same section of the Control Panel, in case you don't need it anymore.
