Introduction

Redirects allow you to automatically send visitors from one domain or URL to another. They are useful when migrating a website, changing page names, or consolidating traffic into a main domain.

Step 1 – Access the Redirects Section

In the SiteWorx panel, go to:

Hosting Features → Domains → Pointer

Step 2 – Create a Redirect

1. Click the Add (+) button.

2. In the Domain field, enter the domain you want to redirect.

3. Select the redirect type:

   • Permanent Redirect (301): for permanent redirects.

   • Temporary Redirect (302): for temporary redirects.

   • Server Alias: to use the domain as an alias of the main one.

4. In Points To, enter the destination domain.

5. Check Create Mail Alias if you also want to redirect email.

6. Click Add to save.

Step 3 – Verify the Created Redirect

After saving, the redirected domain will appear in the Existing Pointers list.

Recommendations

• Always use 301 (Permanent) if the redirect is final to maintain SEO ranking.

• Use 302 (Temporary) only if you plan to revert it later.

• Make sure the destination domain is active before creating the redirect.
