There are a lot of ways to redirect site visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is often recommended. In contrast to parking a domain address, a URL redirection can be done only if the domain name in question is hosted. What this means in simple terms is that you can still open any content if you have a direct link to it and you may create e mail addresses or subdomains and use them. This sort of feature has lots of practical uses - if you decide to switch your domain, you could redirect the site visitors, but the emails with the old one will still be active whenever you are communicating with clients or partners. In case you have two identical Internet sites and you want to rebuild one of them, you can forward the visitors to the other Internet site to prevent losing potential customers, while you'll still be able to access the administrator area for the first Internet site and work on it.
