I have two domains one bought from godaddy, and another from namecheap. They dont have any hosting right now. I would like to redirect them to a CB product sales page with my affilaite link. I want to know if i require a hosting for it, or it can be done directly by doing some settings in my godaddy/namecheap account ? If yes, pls let me know the procedure in exact steps. Thanks
No hosting is required for domain redirects. Simply log in to your GoDaddy/NameCheap account, then go to the domain's options, and you will find "Forward" function there. Then just input the url you want the domain to go to, and that's it.
You don't need a host to redirect your domain. Check godaddy FAQ Forwarding Your Domain to Another URL http://help.godaddy.com/topic/165/article/422
Yes you can do it with the two accounts, but I will give you the exact method for NameCheap: 1- From your account choose "Manage Domains" 2- Then choose the domain you want to redirect. 3- Be sure that your domain is hosted at NameCheap, if you don't find "Transfer DNS Back To Us" at the left, so your domain is already hosted at NameCheap. 4- At left, and under "Host Management" choose "URL Forwarding". 5- Add your affiliate link in both "@" and "www" and for the Record Type choose "URL Frame" for both. 6- Then at the left again, choose "URL Frame Meta Tags", check both "@" and "www" and add your costume title. Hop it helps you, good luck
Do you want the domain to get forward to the CB sales page? Then you don't need any hosting. If you want to have CONTENT, then you need to worry about hosting.
