URL redirection allows you to forward traffic from one site to another. In contrast to forwarding a domain name by parking it when the domain is virtually unusable, a URL redirection is possible only when the domain name is hosted, and thus you will still have the ability to set up 100% functional subdomains and email addresses or even to have content for the domain address in question, even though it won't be accessible directly. If you already have a website, for example, but you need to launch one or several localized websites for different towns or countries, you will be able to work on them without any problem. In case a site visitor opens any of the new domains, however, they'll be forwarded to the existing Internet site. That way, you will not miss potential clients while developing the localized websites.
