URL redirection permits you to redirect visitors from one Internet site to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain by parking it when the domain is practically unusable, a URL redirection is possible only when the domain is hosted, and therefore you will still be able to set up 100% functional subdomains and e mail addresses or even to have content for the domain address in question, though it won't be accessible directly. If you already have a website, for instance, but you'd like to launch one or many localized sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them without a difficulty. When a site visitor opens any one of the new domain names, however, they will be redirected to the existing Internet site. This way, you shall not miss potential customers while building the localized Internet sites.

URL Redirector in Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with our hosting packages, features a URL redirection tool that will permit you to redirect any domain address or subdomain hosted inside your account to any URL - inside your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is quite simple - you need to choose a domain/subdomain and then input the URL it needs to be forwarded to. You can also forward a specific subfolder only. As an illustration, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you could redirect just the latter. The tool has sophisticated functions for more tech-savvy users also, such as the option 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 deactivate it with a mouse click from the exact same section of the CP.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated server packages come with a very convenient tool that will provide you with an automated and easy way to redirect any one of your domain names to a different URL. While this is usually done by creating a special file in the domain folder and by inputting specific content within it, our tool will allow you to select a domain/subdomain from a drop-down list and to input the needed remote Internet address. Our system shall do the rest and the forwarding will be activated within seconds. In case you are more tech-savvy, you may select a range of more advanced options also, among them the redirection method (direct, match) and the redirection type (temporary, permanent). You may also redirect a certain folder rather than the root domain. You'll be able to change these settings whenever you want, as well as to delete an existing redirection from the same exact section where you have created it to start with.
