When you have a few domain names with different extensions and you need all of them to open the same Internet site, you could have the site under one of them and redirect the others. There are a number of ways to redirect one domain to another, like the so-called domain parking. If your website hosting package deal allows it, though, it'll be better if you host all the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The main difference between the two is that while a domain name is hosted, you could still have content for it, create subdomains, e mail addresses, etc., while with a parked domain you can't do any of those things. For instance, if you are building localized websites under several country-code domain names, you'll be able to work on them, but in the meantime, visitors shall be redirected to the primary Internet site.

URL Redirector in Cloud Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with our cloud plans, provides a URL redirection tool that will allow you to redirect any domain or subdomain hosted inside your account to any URL - within your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is incredibly easy - you need to choose a domain/subdomain and then enter the URL it should be forwarded to. You can also redirect a certain subfolder only. As an illustration, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you can forward only the latter. The tool has sophisticated options for more tech-savvy users also, such as the option to choose the redirection type - 301 (permanent redirection) or 302 (temporary redirection), the redirection method - direct or match, and so forth. If you no longer need a redirection, you can deactivate it with a mouse click from the very same section of the Control Panel.
