URL redirection allows you to forward targeted traffic from one site to another. In contrast to redirecting a domain name by parking it when the domain is unusable, a URL redirection is possible only if the domain address is hosted, and therefore you shall still have the ability to set up completely functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain name in question, though it will not be accessible directly. If you have a site, for instance, but you'd like to launch one or a variety of localized Internet sites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them without any problem. In case a visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they'll be redirected to the existing Internet site. In this way, you'll not miss potential clients while building the localized sites.
