URL redirection permits you to redirect targeted traffic from one site to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain by parking it when the domain is practically unusable, a URL redirection is possible only when the domain is hosted, meaning that you shall still be able to set up entirely functional subdomains and e mail addresses or even to have content for the domain in question, even though it won't be accessible directly. If you currently have an Internet site, for instance, but you need to launch one or several localized websites for different towns or countries, you shall be able to work on them without any difficulty. In case a website visitor opens any one of the new domains, however, they will be redirected to the existing website. That way, you will not miss potential clients while building the localized websites.
