When you have several domains with different extensions and you would like all of them to open the exact same website, you may have the site under one of them and redirect the others. There are various approaches to forward one Internet domain name to another, like the so-called domain parking. When your hosting plan allows it, though, it'll be better if you host each of the domains and set up a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The difference between the two is that while a domain is hosted, you can still have content for it, set up subdomains, email addresses, and so on., while with a parked domain it's not possible to do any of those things. As an illustration, if you are building localized Internet sites under different country-code domains, you will be able to work on them, but meanwhile, people shall be redirected to the main site.

URL Redirector in Shared Web Hosting

The Hepsia CP, included with our Linux shared web hosting, includes a URL redirection tool that will enable you to forward any domain address or subdomain hosted inside your account to any URL - inside your account or a third-party one. Setting up a new redirection is incredibly simple - you have to select a domain/subdomain and then type in the URL it needs to be forwarded to. You could also forward a particular subfolder only. For instance, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you could redirect just the latter. The tool has sophisticated functions for more tech-savvy users as well, like the option to pick the redirection type - 301 (permanent redirection) or 302 (temporary redirection), the redirection method - direct or match, and so forth. If you no longer require a redirection, you may disable it with a mouse click from the very same section of the CP.

In case you have no previous experience, you could forward a domain or a subdomain by selecting it and then by typing or pasting the remote URL. If you are proficient, you can also decide if the type of the redirection needs to be permanent or temporary and if the method needs to be direct or match. Any of these options may be modified whenever you want as well as the URL, so you will not need to create a new redirection if you'd like to adjust something. Needless to say, if you no longer require a certain domain or subdomain to be forwarded, you could delete the redirection with ease.
