There are many ways to redirect website visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is frequently recommended. In contrast to parking a domain, a URL forwarding is feasible only if the domain name in question is hosted. What this means in simple terms is that you may still open any content in case you have a direct link to it and you could set up email addresses or subdomains and use them. Such a function has many practical uses - if you decide to switch your domain address, you may redirect the visitors, but the emails with the old one shall still be active in the event that you are getting in touch with clients or partners. If you have 2 very similar Internet sites and you would like to rebuild one of them, you can forward the traffic to the other Internet site to avoid losing potential clients, while you shall still be able to access the admin area for the first Internet site and work on it.
