URL redirection allows you to forward visitors from one Internet site to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain address by parking it when the domain is unusable, a URL redirection is possible provided that the domain is hosted, and thus you will still have the ability to create fully functional subdomains and e mail addresses or even to have content for the domain name in question, although it won't be accessible directly. If you already have a website, for example, but you'd like to launch one or many localized sites for different towns or countries, you shall be able to work on them without a difficulty. If a site visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they'll be redirected to the existing site. In this way, you will not miss customers while creating the localized sites.
URL Redirector in Shared Hosting
Our company offers a handy and extremely simple-to-use tool for setting up a URL forwarding, so in case you have a shared hosting account with our company, you can take advantage of it, if necessary. Any domain name or subdomain hosted inside the account can be redirected, so you will just need to select the one you need from a drop-down menu, to decide if the main folder or a subfolder shall be redirected and to type in the new web address, regardless of whether it's pointing to a different site in your account or to a site on a remote server. The redirection will be enabled almost immediately. If you're more skillful, you will have a range of advanced options to choose from as well - the redirection method (match or direct), the type (301 Permanent or 302 Temporary) and many others. All of the redirections shall be listed in the very same section, so in case you don't need a certain one anymore, you'll be able to cancel it with a mouse click.

These options may be altered for any present redirection too, so you'll not have to set up a new one if you want to change something. You could remove a redirection by clicking on the Delete button associated with it.
