URL redirection enables you to forward site visitors from one Internet site to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain by parking it when the domain is sort of unusable, a URL redirection is possible provided that the domain is hosted, and thus you'll still be able to set up fully functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain address in question, though it shall not accessible directly. If you have a website, for example, but you would like to launch one or a variety of localized websites for different towns or countries, you'll be able to work on them without a difficulty. If a website visitor opens any of the new domain names, however, they will be forwarded to the existing Internet site. This way, you will not miss customers while developing the localized sites.
URL Redirector in Cloud Web Hosting
The Hepsia CP, which comes with our Linux cloud web hosting, features a URL redirection tool that will permit you to forward any domain name or subdomain hosted within your account to any URL - in your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is rather easy - you have to pick a domain/subdomain and then input the URL it should be forwarded to. You could also redirect a certain subfolder only. For example, when you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you are able to forward just the latter. The tool has advanced features for more tech-savvy users also, including the feature 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 may deactivate it with a mouse click from the very same section of the CP.
