    I've recently registered a domain with exabytes with their .99 domain registration special. I was just wondering if it was possible to redirect to a different website using their tools.

    They only allow you to change the DNS of the domain. Is it possible for me to redirect this domain to a website that I already have setup?

    Do they allow domain forwarding?
    If not, you have to park the domain on a hosting account and redirect it though .htaccess

    You will need to use a free dns service like www.everydns.net . Just set your nameservers to everdns' and then create an account there and add your site to your account. You will then be able to forward your site, edit cname records etc.
