How to configure Web Forwarding
If you wish to point a domain name to a pre-existing website, you may wish to utilise web forwarding within your Online Control Panel. Web Forwarding allows you to seamlessly redirect users to the target URL, either completely masking the new URL, or by a search engine friendly 301 redirect.
To begin, login to your Online Control Panel and select Domain Names from the left menu
From the sub-menu that you will now see below Domain Names, select Web Forwarding. If you do not have an email package the option will be Email & Web Forwarding.
This will take you to the Forwarding Settings: screen, as shown in the screenshot below
If you are unsure what to enter in any of the fields on this page, you can select the orange question mark next to each field title which will provide a brief explanation of the purpose of the field. The only field which you must configure is the URL to forward to field. You must ensure that the full URL is entered here, including http://. Once you are happy with the settings you have configured, select Update.
