URL redirection allows you to forward site visitors from one website to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain address by parking it when the domain is sort of unusable, a URL forwarding is possible provided that the domain is hosted, meaning that you'll still have the ability to create fully functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain address in question, even though it shall not accessible directly. If you already have a site, for instance, but you would like to launch one or a number of localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them without any difficulty. In case a visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they will be forwarded to the existing Internet site. In this way, you won't miss customers while building the localized websites.

URL Redirector in Shared Website Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, included with our shared website hosting, includes a URL forwarding tool which will allow you to forward any domain or subdomain hosted inside your account to any URL - inside your account or a third-party one. Setting up a new redirection is extremely simple - you must select a domain/subdomain and then input the URL it needs to be redirected to. You can also forward a specific subfolder only. For example, if you have your-domain.com and your-domain.com/es, you can forward just the latter. The tool has complex features for more tech-savvy users as well, 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 can disable it with a click from the same section of the Control Panel.
