There are many ways to forward website 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 can be done only if the domain name in question is hosted. What this means basically is that you can still open any content if 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 could redirect the visitors, but the e-mail messages with the old one shall still be active in case you are communicating with clients or partners. In case you have 2 very similar sites and you need to rebuild one of them, you can forward the traffic to the other site to avoid losing potential customers, while you will still be able to access the admin area for the first Internet site and develop it.
