How can I create different types of web redirect with my CPanel?

Different types of web redirects can be created from your CPanel > Redirects in the Domains box. Redirections are of two types: Temporary and Permanent.

 

Temporary redirects (as the name suggests) are not permanent redirects, which means that the page is sending status code 302 to the browser. The code 302 tells the browser not to save this redirect into its cached data. This is the recommended type of redirect unless you are absolutely sure that you will never change it in the future.

 

Permanent redirects have a status code of 301 and, unlike the temporary ones, are cached in the browser memory. This means that the page has moved and they request any search engine or user agent coming to the page to update the URL in their database.

 

The above redirects may loop and show errors. In these cases we recommend plain HTML or PHP redirects.
