There are many ways to forward site visitors from one domain/website to another. The so-called URL redirection is frequently favored. In contrast to parking a domain name, a URL redirection is feasible only if the domain in question is hosted. What this means basically is that you can still open any content in case you have a direct link to it and you may create email addresses or subdomains and use them. This sort of function has several practical uses - if you want to switch your domain name, you can forward the traffic, but the e-mails with the old one shall still be active in case you are communicating with clients or partners. When you have 2 similar Internet sites and you would like to rebuild one of them, you can forward the site visitors to the other website in order to avoid losing potential customers, while you shall still be able to access the administration area for the first website and develop it.
