How do I setup a domain alias/forward?

Solution If you have more than one domain name but just one website, you can setup a domain alias (also called domain forwarding). A domain alias is a domain name that once entered into a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.) re-directs the user to your main website.

Login to your website hosting control panel, then go to HOME --> DOMAIN ALIAS. If you need further assistance, please click on the HELP link at left under HELP & SUPPORT once you are at the DOMAIN ALIAS window.

EXAMPLE: Let's say your main domain name is yourcompany.com. You also registered the domain name yourcompany.biz. If someone goes to yourcompany.biz, you want them to be re-directed to the yourcompany.com website. You would setup yourcompany.biz as a domain alias. The number of domain aliases you can setup depends on your website hosting plan.
