There are many ways to redirect site visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is oftentimes favored. In contrast to parking a domain, a URL forwarding is feasible only if the domain name in question is hosted. What this means essentially is that you can still open any content in case you have a direct link to it and you may create e mail addresses or subdomains and use them. This sort of function has many practical uses - if you want to switch your domain, you could redirect the traffic, but the e-mails with the old one shall still be active in the event that you are getting in touch with customers or partners. If you have 2 similar Internet sites and you want to rebuild one of them, you may forward the site visitors to the other website to avoid losing potential clients, while you'll still be able to access the admin area for the first site and develop it.
