Creating a domain redirection using the redirect feature at Hostinger

Updated over a month ago

You can easily create and manage domain redirects from a domain added to your hosting plan to another domain or IP address.

If the domain you wish to redirect is currently connected to Hostinger Website Builder, you will need to delete the builder-based site and add your domain to a hosting plan as an empty website or using a different CMS, such as WordPress.

How to create a redirect

Navigate to Websites Dashboard, search for Redirects on the sidebar, and click on it. Then, fill in the following:

  • Redirect — select a domain to redirect from the dropdown list.

  • /path — specify a custom path to be redirected (if needed).

  • Redirect to URL or IP — choose the type of destination.

  • Redirect to enter the destination to where the domain will redirect.

Once everything is ready, click on Create:

To redirect your domain to HTTPS, ensure that the SSL is installed beforehand.

How to remove a redirect

To delete a redirect, navigate to Websites Dashboard, search for Redirects on the sidebar, and click on it. Locate the desired redirect in the List of Redirects section. Next, click on the trash bin icon to cancel the redirection:

Once deleted, the domain will stop redirecting and point to its original destination record according to its DNS zone.
