URL redirection allows you to redirect visitors from one Internet site to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain by parking it when the domain is virtually unusable, a URL redirection is possible only when the domain name is hosted, consequently you'll still be able to create fully functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain name in question, even though it won't be accessible directly. If you currently have a site, for example, but you'd like to launch one or several localized websites 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 domain names, however, they shall be sent to the existing Internet site. That way, you won't miss potential clients while developing the localized websites.

URL Redirector in Web Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, included with our Linux web hosting packages, features a URL redirection tool which will allow you to forward any domain or subdomain hosted within your account to any URL - within your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is incredibly simple - you have to choose a domain/subdomain and then type in the URL it has to be redirected to. You can also forward a certain subfolder only. As an example, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you'll be able to forward only the latter. The tool has sophisticated functions for more tech-savvy users also, including the feature to select 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 click from the same section of the Control Panel.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you order any of our Linux semi-dedicated packages, you will get access to a helpful tool, you can use to forward any domain hosted within the account with just a few mouse clicks. The tool is a component of the innovative Hepsia Control Panel and can be used by both expert users and beginners. If you have no previous experience, you can redirect a domain or a subdomain by selecting it and then by entering or pasting the remote URL. If you are expert, you can also decide if the type of the redirection needs to be permanent or temporary and if the method must be direct or match. All of these options may be changed at any time along with the URL, so you will not have to create a new redirection if you would like to adjust something. Naturally, when you no longer require a specific domain or subdomain to be forwarded, you can delete the redirection with ease.
