I have a domain1.com with - removed - and a hosting plan with it. I recently purchased another domain2.com from a seller on godaddy.com. That domain is with goDaddy.com. I want to redirect all request from the "domain1.com" to "domain2.com". So in godaddy there was this option called "Forwarding" where i could enter my destination domain "domain2.com" and select 301 or 302. I selected 302. And now whenever i hit domain2.com in my browser url it gets redirected to domain1.com However when i enter /http://www.domain2.com (with the /www.) it does not redirect, it opens up the web page which was configured before i purchased the domain from the seller. What should I change ?

  Re: How to redirect user from one domain which does not have any hosting to another domain which has Hello :) Yes, ideally, you should simply update the name servers for the additional domain name to ones for the cPanel server. Then, add the domain name as a "Parked" or "Addon" domain name in the cPanel interface, depending on what you want to see in the address bar in your browser. Thank you.
