URL redirection enables you to redirect site visitors from one site to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain by parking it when the domain is sort of unusable, a URL redirection is possible only if the domain address is hosted, consequently you'll still have the ability to set up 100% functional subdomains and e-mail addresses or even to have content for the domain name in question, although it will not be accessible directly. If you have an Internet site, for instance, but you'd like to launch one or several localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them without any difficulty. If a website visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they will be forwarded to the existing website. This way, you will not miss customers while developing the localized sites.

URL Redirector in Shared Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, supplied with our shared hosting, features a URL forwarding tool which will allow you to redirect any domain name or subdomain hosted within your account to any URL - within your account or a third-party one. Setting up a new redirection is extremely uncomplicated - you need to select a domain/subdomain and then type the URL it should be forwarded to. You can also redirect a certain subfolder only. As an illustration, when you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you'll be able to forward only the latter. The tool has sophisticated options for more tech-savvy users as well, like the possibility to choose 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 exact same section of the Control Panel.
