There are many ways to redirect site visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is frequently preferred. In contrast to parking a domain name, a URL redirection is feasible only if the domain name in question is hosted. What this means essentially is that you could still open any content in case you have a direct link to it and you can set up e-mail addresses or subdomains and use them. Such a function has lots of practical uses - if you decide to switch your domain, you can forward the site visitors, but the e-mail messages with the old one shall still be active whenever you are communicating with customers or partners. When you have two similar websites and you would like to rebuild one of them, you may forward the site visitors to the other site so that you can avoid losing potential customers, while you shall still be able to access the administrator area for the first Internet site and work on it.
