URL redirection permits you to forward targeted traffic from one Internet site to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain name by parking it when the domain is sort of unusable, a URL forwarding is possible only when the domain is hosted, consequently you shall still be able to set up entirely functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain in question, although it shall not accessible directly. If you already have an Internet site, for example, but you'd like to launch one or a variety of localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them without any problem. In case a site visitor opens any of the new domain names, however, they'll be redirected to the existing Internet site. That way, you shall not miss potential clients while developing the localized websites.

URL Redirector in Shared Website Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, included with our shared website hosting plans, provides a URL redirection tool that will allow you to redirect any domain name or subdomain hosted in your account to any URL - within your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is quite uncomplicated - you need to choose a domain/subdomain and then type the URL it needs to be redirected to. You could also redirect a particular subfolder only. For example, when you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you could redirect only the latter. The tool has advanced functions for more tech-savvy users too, such as the possibility 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 are able to deactivate it with a click from the same section of the CP.
