There are many ways to redirect traffic from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is oftentimes preferred. In contrast to parking a domain address, a URL forwarding can be done only if the domain name in question is hosted. What this means basically is that you could still open any content in case you have a direct link to it and you can set up e-mail addresses or subdomains and use them. This type of function has lots of practical uses - if you decide to switch your domain address, you may forward the visitors, but the e-mail messages with the old one will still be active in case you are getting in touch with clients or partners. When you have 2 very similar Internet sites and you need to rebuild one of them, you could redirect the site visitors to the other site in order to prevent losing potential clients, while you'll still be able to access the admin area for the first Internet site and work on it.

URL Redirector in Cloud Hosting

With the point-and-click forwarding tool, which is incorporated into our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, you'll be able to redirect any of your domain names and subdomains irrespective of the Linux cloud hosting package that you've picked. With simply a couple of mouse clicks, you could create a new redirection even if you have not used a hosting account before, because our tool is really easy-to-use. For a standard redirection, you will simply have to choose a domain/subdomain from a drop-down menu, to input the new URL, and then to save the change. The more proficient users can change other options also - the redirection type (permanent/temporary), the method (direct/match) and the folder where this forwarding shall be active (the main domain folder or a particular subfolder). Any forwarding you have set up may be deleted with just a click anytime.
