How do I redirect a domain?

Most of our customers want to use DNS to redirect their visitors from one domain to another. For example, if they have several domains but only one website or if they have created a new website on a different domain. That's why we made it very easy to set this up.

This feature is included in our Domain Protection add-on. To learn more about what’s included and how it works, please visit our Domain Protection guide.

If you want to direct only parts of your domain, like a subfolder, you should create a Web forward or Web alias.

1. Log into the one.com Control Panel.

2. Click "Domain" in the left hand menu, followed by "DNS settings".

   

3. Enter the URL that you want to redirect your domain to like this: https://www.one-example.com. You can also redirect to one of your own domains by choosing "Redirect to one of your other domains" and choosing from the list.

   

4. If you want to keep displaying the domain you're redirecting from as the URL in the address bar of your browser, then check the box.
5. Click Save to create the redirect.

Note: Depending on the cache and TTL, it can take from 15 seconds to 24 hours, before the redirect you have created is in effect, so it may not work right away. We recommend that you wait a couple of minutes before you test to see if it works.
