If you have a lot of domain names with different extensions and you would like all of them to open the exact same site, you may have the website under one of them and forward the others. There are various approaches to forward one domain name to another, among them the so-called domain parking. If your hosting package permits it, though, it will be better if you host each of the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The difference between the two is that while a domain is hosted, you could still have content for it, create subdomains, e-mail addresses, and so on., while with a parked domain you cannot do any of those things. For instance, if you are building localized sites under different country-code domain names, you'll be able to work on them, but meanwhile, people will be redirected to the primary site.

URL Redirector in Website Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, included with our Linux website hosting packages, includes a URL redirection tool that will allow you to redirect any domain name or subdomain hosted inside your account to any URL - in your account or a third-party one. Setting up a new redirection is very simple - you need to choose a domain/subdomain and then input the URL it has to be forwarded to. You could also redirect a specific subfolder only. For instance, when you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you'll be able to redirect only the latter. The tool has advanced functions for more tech-savvy users also, such as the option 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 require a redirection, you may deactivate it with a mouse click from the same exact section of the Control Panel.
