There are many ways to redirect website visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is frequently recommended. In contrast to parking a domain, a URL redirection can be done only if the domain name in question is hosted. What this means basically is that you can still open any content if you have a direct link to it and you could set up e-mail addresses or subdomains and use them. This kind of feature has numerous practical uses - if you want to switch your domain name, you could redirect the site visitors, but the e-mails with the old one will still be active whenever you are communicating with customers or partners. In case you have 2 identical sites and you intend to rebuild one of them, you could forward the traffic to the other website so that you can avoid losing potential customers, while you'll still be able to access the admin area for the first Internet site and develop it.

URL Redirector in Shared Hosting

With the point-and-click redirection tool, that's included in our in-house built Hepsia CP, you will be able to redirect each of your domain names and subdomains irrespective of the Linux shared hosting that you have chosen. With just a couple of mouse clicks, you could create a new redirection even if you have not used a hosting account before, since our tool is extremely easy-to-use. For a standard redirection, you'll only need to select a domain/subdomain from a drop-down menu, to type the new URL, and then to save the change. The more proficient users can change other options as well - the forwarding type (permanent/temporary), the method (direct/match) and the folder where this forwarding shall be enabled (the main domain folder or a specific subfolder). Any forwarding that you've set up may be deleted with simply a click at any time.

If you are proficient, you'll be able to edit different options, like the type of the redirection - temporary or permanent, and the method - direct or match. All these options may be changed for any current redirection too, so you will not need to create a new one if you wish to edit something. You could remove a redirection by clicking on the Delete button associated with it.
