URL redirection permits you to forward traffic from one site to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain by parking it when the domain is practically unusable, a URL redirection is possible only if the domain is hosted, and therefore you'll still be able to set up entirely functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain address in question, though it won't be accessible directly. If you currently have a site, for instance, but you'd like to launch one or a number of localized websites for different towns or countries, you shall be able to work on them with no problem. In case a site visitor opens any of the new domain names, however, they will be redirected to the existing website. In this way, you won't miss potential clients while developing the localized Internet sites.

URL Redirector in Cloud Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, supplied with our Linux cloud hosting, provides a URL forwarding tool that will permit you to forward any domain name or subdomain hosted in your account to any URL - within your account or a third-party one. Setting up a new redirection is extremely simple - you must pick a domain/subdomain and then enter the URL it should be forwarded to. You may also forward a certain subfolder only. As an illustration, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you may redirect just the latter. The tool has sophisticated features for more tech-savvy users also, including the possibility to pick 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 could deactivate it with a mouse click from the exact same section of the CP.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Servers

Every semi-dedicated server plan we provide will allow you to forward any host (domain or subdomain) to a third-party URL without any difficulty. While this may be done manually by creating a system file and by including certain content to it, we will supply you with a user-friendly tool in which you will simply have to choose the domain/subdomain in question and to input the remote address. Our system will handle what's left, so a couple of seconds later the new redirection shall be fully active. The more knowledgeable users could also make use of a couple of other customizable options, like the option to select the redirection type (direct, match) and method (301 permanent, 302 temporary). All of these options, and the URL a domain is redirected to, may be altered with just a few clicks anytime. When you no longer need a redirection, you'll be able to delete it just as fast.
