Web forwarding

Also known as domain forwarding or domain alias, web forwarding is a feature often provided by the web host or domain name provider. For example, Computer Hope has several domains, such as computerhope.net, which are forwarded to computerhope.com.

Web forwarding is often used to forward a user who may be looking for your site but misspelled your domain name or may be using a different web suffix (.net instead of .com).
