URL redirection permits you to redirect targeted traffic from one Internet site to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain address by parking it when the domain is sort of unusable, a URL redirection is possible only if the domain address is hosted, and therefore you shall still have the ability to create completely functional subdomains and e-mail addresses or even to have content for the domain name in question, though it shall not accessible directly. If you have a website, for instance, but you need to launch one or a variety of localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them with no problem. If a website visitor opens any one of the new domains, however, they will be sent to the existing Internet site. In this way, you will not miss potential clients while building the localized websites.

The redirection will be activated almost instantly. If you're more experienced, you will have a variety of advanced options to select from also - the redirection method (match or direct), the type (301 Permanent or 302 Temporary) and so on.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our semi-dedicated server solutions come with a very useful tool that'll offer you an automated and uncomplicated way to forward any one of your domain addresses to a different URL. While this is typically done by creating a special file inside the domain folder and by inputting specific content inside it, our tool will allow you to select a domain/subdomain from a drop-down list and to input the desired remote web address. Our system will do the rest and the redirection will be active in just seconds. In case you are more tech-savvy, you could choose a range of more advanced options too, among them the redirection method (direct, match) and the redirection type (temporary, permanent). You may also forward a certain folder rather than the root domain. You'll be able to edit these settings at any time, and even to delete an existing redirection from the same section in which you have created it in the first place.
