URL redirection allows you to redirect targeted traffic from one website to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain name by parking it when the domain is sort of unusable, a URL redirection is possible only when the domain is hosted, consequently you will still have the ability to create 100% functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain in question, even though it shall not accessible directly. If you have a website, for instance, but you want to launch one or a variety of localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you shall be able to work on them without any problem. In case a site visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they'll be redirected to the existing Internet site. This way, you will not miss customers while creating the localized Internet sites.

URL Redirector in Cloud Web Hosting

The Hepsia CP, which comes with our cloud web hosting, includes a URL redirection tool that will allow you to forward any domain or subdomain hosted in your account to any URL - in your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is very simple - you need to choose a domain/subdomain and then type the URL it should be forwarded to. You may also forward a certain subfolder only. For instance, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you can redirect only the latter. The tool has sophisticated functions for more tech-savvy users also, like the option to choose 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 may disable it with a click from the same exact section of the CP.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Servers

Each semi-dedicated server plan that we offer will permit you to redirect any host (domain or subdomain) to a third-party URL without difficulty. While this can be carried out manually by creating a system file and by including specific content to it, we'll give you a user-friendly tool where you will only have to select the domain/subdomain in question and to type the remote address. Our system will handle the rest, so a few seconds later the new redirection will be completely active. The more advanced users may also make use of a number of other customizable options, including the option to select the redirection type (direct, match) and method (301 permanent, 302 temporary). Any of these options, along with the URL a domain is forwarded to, can be altered with just a few clicks anytime. If you no longer need a redirection, you may delete it just as easily.
