URL Redirect / Web Site Pointing

No Banner Ads

The URL Redirect, URL Frame and IP Address Pointing features are free with every domain registration. They do not include any banner ads like some registration companies such as Register.com.

Web Site Pointing

There are several other options for Web Site Pointing including IP Address Pointing and URL Frame.

URL Frame

Another great option for Web Site Pointing is URL Frame. With this setting your domain name is pointed to a specific web site but the domain name stays in the browser.

URL Frame is preferred when you want to brand your domain name in the browser. This can give you added branding perception for your domain name.

IP Address
Pointing

Our IP Address Web Site Pointing is a great free feature when you use our nameservers. After an easy configuration in your domain control panel, your domain can be pointing to any other IP Address on the Internet.

With IP Address Pointing, after you type in your domain name the page resolves to the IP Address. You may have your own IP address or have been given an IP address by a hosting company. This can give you added branding perception for your domain name.

Point To Any Other Web Page For Free With No Banner Ads!

Our URL Redirect Web Site Pointing is a great free feature when you use our nameservers. After an easy configuration in your domain control panel, your domain can be pointing to any other page on the Internet.

With URL Redirect, after you type in your domain name, the destination web page that your domain is pointed to will appear in the browser.

To experience an example of URL Redirect type the following domain into your browser:

This domain has the URL Redirect feature activated with the domain pointing to:

http://RegistryDomains.com/url_redirect.htm which is what you see in the browser after the page resolves.

URL Redirect Set-up
Login to manage your domain ( For more info on Express Account Login click here )

To use URL Redirect you must be using our nameservers. If the "Hosts" section is visible (see below) in your domain control panel you are using our nameservers. (New domain registrations default to our nameservers). To configure URL Redirect select and type in the settings below changing the address for the Host Name "@" with the web site address you want your domain to be redirected to.

Remove any other default settings including any parking page default settings.

Hosts

	Hostname	Address	Record Type	MX Pref
1)
2)

Please note that the setting above for the "www" pointed to the host "@" insures that people will be able to access your site with or without the "www" typed in the browser.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "Modify" to save your changes.

If your domain is a new registration you can pre-configure these settings, but please note that it can take 24-36 hours for a new domain to be fully updated or propagated across the Internet.

If your domain has been registered longer than 1-2 days your changes will take affect usually within 5-60 minutes. Type your domain name into a new browser and check the resolution.
