There are many ways to redirect site visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is frequently preferred. In contrast to parking a domain address, a URL forwarding is feasible only if the domain in question is hosted. What this means in simple terms is that you could still open any content in case you have a direct link to it and you could create 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 can redirect the visitors, but the e-mail messages with the old one shall still be active if you are making contact with customers or partners. If you have 2 identical sites and you intend to rebuild one of them, you could redirect the visitors to the other Internet site so as to prevent losing potential clients, while you'll still be able to access the admin area for the first site and work on it.

URL Redirector in Cloud Website Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, included with our cloud website hosting, provides a URL redirection tool that will enable you to redirect any domain address or subdomain hosted in your account to any URL - in your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is extremely simple - you need to choose a domain/subdomain and then type in the URL it needs to be forwarded to. You could also forward a specific subfolder only. For example, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you are able to forward just the latter. The tool has complex options for more tech-savvy users as well, like the feature to pick the redirection type - 301 (permanent redirection) or 302 (temporary redirection), the redirection method - direct or match, etc. If you no longer need a redirection, you are able to disable it with a mouse click from the same exact section of the Control Panel.
