In case you have a lot of domain names with different extensions and you want all of them to open exactly the same Internet site, you could have the Internet site under one of them and forward all the rest. There are a number of approaches to redirect one domain name to another, like the so-called domain parking. If your website hosting plan allows it, though, it'll be better if you host all of the domains and set up a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The main difference between the two is that while a domain address is hosted, you can still have content for it, create subdomains, e mail addresses, and so on., while with a parked domain you cannot do any of those things. For example, if you are building localized Internet sites under different country-code domains, you shall be able to work on them, but at the same time, visitors will be forwarded to the primary Internet site.
