URL redirection allows you to redirect traffic from one site to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain address by parking it when the domain is practically unusable, a URL forwarding is possible provided that the domain is hosted, and therefore you'll still be able to set up entirely functional subdomains and e-mail addresses or even to have content for the domain name in question, though it won't be accessible directly. If you currently have an Internet site, for example, but you would like to launch one or a variety of localized websites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them with no difficulty. In case a visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they shall be redirected to the existing Internet site. In this way, you'll not miss potential customers while developing the localized websites.

Any domain or subdomain hosted within the account may be forwarded, so you will only need to choose the one you need from a drop-down menu, to pick if the main folder or a subfolder shall be redirected and to enter the new web address, no matter if it is pointing to a different website within your account or to an Internet site on a remote server. The forwarding will be activated almost immediately. If you are more competent, you will have a range of advanced options to choose from too - the redirection method (match or direct), the type (301 Permanent or 302 Temporary) etc. All the redirections will be listed in the same section, so when you don't need a specific one anymore, you are able to cancel it with a click.
