What is a Domain Name Pointer?
A Domain Name Pointer, also referred to as a Domain Pointer, is used to "point" or "redirect" visitors who type in your domain name to another location. Common uses include redirecting visitors to your primary web site, or to a specific page on your site. top
Why do I need a Domain Name Pointer?
Say for example you registered two domain names, www.yourcompany.com and the same name ending in .net. While your web site is located at the www.yourcompany.com name, you would use a Domain Pointer to redirect visitors who entered your www.yourcompany.net name to your primary, .com web site. Many organizations register multiple domain names to prevent competitors or other persons from registering names similar to theirs. top
