URL redirection permits you to forward targeted traffic from one website to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain by parking it when the domain is virtually unusable, a URL redirection is possible only when the domain address is hosted, consequently you shall still have the ability to create completely functional subdomains and e-mail addresses or even to have content for the domain in question, though it will not be accessible directly. If you currently have a website, for example, but you want to launch one or several localized sites for different towns or countries, you'll be able to work on them without a problem. If a website visitor opens any one of the new domains, however, they will be redirected to the existing website. That way, you won't miss customers while creating the localized sites.

URL Redirector in Cloud Web Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, supplied with our Linux cloud web hosting services, features a URL forwarding tool that will allow you to forward any domain address or subdomain hosted inside your account to any URL - inside your account or a third-party one. Creating a new redirection is incredibly easy - you have to select a domain/subdomain and then type in the URL it needs to be redirected to. You could also forward a certain subfolder only. As an illustration, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you could forward only the latter. The tool has advanced functions for more tech-savvy users too, such as the feature 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 are able to disable it with a mouse click from the very same section of the Control Panel.

URL Redirector in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Each semi-dedicated server package deal which we offer will allow you to redirect any host (domain or subdomain) to a third-party URL with ease. While this can be performed manually by creating a system file and by adding particular content to it, we will supply you with a user-friendly tool where you will simply have to pick 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 will be 100% active. The more experienced users can also make use of a couple of other customizable options, such as the option to select the redirection type (direct, match) and method (301 permanent, 302 temporary). All of these options, plus the URL a domain is redirected to, could be altered with a couple of clicks whenever you want. In case you no longer need a redirection, you can delete it just as quickly.
