URL redirection allows you to forward targeted traffic from one website to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain by parking it when the domain is unusable, a URL redirection is possible only when the domain is hosted, and thus you'll still be able to set up 100% functional subdomains and e-mail addresses or even to have content for the domain in question, although it will not be accessible directly. If you currently have a website, for example, but you'd like to launch one or several localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you shall be able to work on them without any problem. If a visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they will be sent to the existing site. This way, you shall not miss potential customers while building the localized Internet sites.
