URL redirection enables you to redirect traffic from one website to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain by parking it when the domain is practically unusable, a URL forwarding is possible provided that the domain name is hosted, and therefore you will still have the ability to set up fully functional subdomains and e-mail addresses or even to have content for the domain address 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 sites 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 will be sent to the existing Internet site. In this way, you'll not miss customers while developing the localized websites.

URL Redirector in Web Hosting

The Hepsia CP, which comes with our web hosting, features a URL redirection tool which will allow you to redirect any domain address or subdomain hosted within your account to any URL - inside your account or a third-party one. Setting up a new redirection is very easy - you have to choose a domain/subdomain and then enter the URL it needs to be redirected to. You may also forward a certain subfolder only. For example, when you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you could forward just the latter. The tool has sophisticated features for more tech-savvy users too, such as the option to pick the redirection type - 301 (permanent redirection) or 302 (temporary redirection), the redirection method - direct or match, and so on. If you no longer require a redirection, you could deactivate it with a mouse click from the same section of the CP.

In case you are more advanced, you can also decide if the type of the redirection has to be permanent or temporary and if the method should be direct or match. All of these options may be changed anytime along with the URL, so you won't need to set up a new redirection if you wish to change something. Naturally, when you no longer require a given domain or subdomain to be redirected, you'll be able to delete the redirection effortlessly.
