Domain redirects allow you to redirect your domain name to another website. Domain redirects are available on Domains, Custom Mailbox, Business Mail, Web Hosting, and WordPress hosting plans.

Caution: Don't redirect your domain to itself or anything containing the same domain name - that is, don't redirect your-site-here.net to your-site-here.net/blog. If you do so, your visitors will see an error message.

Note: An SSL certificate is not available for Domains or Business Mail plans. If browsing your domain via the secure (https) protocol, such as https://your-site-here.net, the domain will show an SSL error. This will include when a redirect is set on the domain.
