Want to know how do I redirect with Hostinger using hPanel? Do you need to forward traffic from one domain name to another domain or website? If so, then I have put together a really simple step-by-step tutorial that shows you how to create Hostinger domain redirects in seconds!
I decided to create this post being that one of my subscribers on my Youtube channel asked this question and requested a video. I have been using Hostinger for about 6 years and really love their web hosting services.
If you currently have a web hosting account with Hostinger, then you may want to redirect for a few reasons:
- To promote affiliate marketing links & products [clickbank, shareasale, cj.com, etc]
- To redirect web traffic from a current website you have to another website
Whatever the case, you can easily do this with your Hostinger web hosting account.
[Note: To learn how to create a WordPress blog using Hostinger with Elementor, then see this Hostinger review.
