In case you have a number of domain names with different extensions and you want all of them to open the same site, you may have the Internet site under one of them and forward the rest. There are various ways to redirect one Internet domain name to another, among them the so-called domain parking. When your web hosting plan allows it, though, it will be better if you host all the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The real difference between the two is that while a domain address is hosted, you can still have content for it, create subdomains, email addresses, and many others., while with a parked domain you are unable to do any of those things. As an illustration, if you're building localized Internet sites under several country-code domains, you shall be able to work on them, but at the same time, people will be forwarded to the main website.
