NameSecure >> Web Forwarding

Web Forwarding

Web Forwarding lets you attach your domain name to any existing Web site. Traffic that arrives at your domain name (www.your-chosen-domain.com) is forwarded through our computers to an existing Web address specified by you.

Benefits

• Gives you a customized Web address that is easy to remember and come back to.
• Users can simply enter http://www.your-chosen-domain.com to get to your site. Our servers recognize the request and forward users to the address at your Web host. The process happens instantaneously and invisibly.
• Lets you change Web hosting companies at any time without losing traffic. This is because people use your custom Web address to access your site, instead of the Web address at your Web host. When you change your host, you simply change your Web Forwarding settings.

Getting It

Web Forwarding is included with every new domain name registration. To register a new domain name, click here. You also get Web Forwarding when you transfer a domain name to NameSecure, or when you renew your domain with NameSecure.

Setting It Up

After you purchase a registration, you can visit My Account to configure your Web Forwarding settings. You can change your forwarding settings at no charge at any time, as many times as you like.

If you don't currently have a Web site to forward to, you can set up a free One-Page Mini-Site. You can also turn forwarding off completely.

When Web Forwarding is turned on, you can use the URL Gripper to keep your customized Web address in your visitors' browser location field as they surf your site.
