If you have a number of domains with different extensions and you would like all of them to open the same site, you can have the website under one of them and forward the others. There are several methods to redirect one Internet domain name to another, among them the so-called domain parking. When your website hosting plan allows it, though, it shall be better if you host each of the domains and create a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The primary difference between the two is that while a domain name is hosted, you can still have content for it, create subdomains, e mail addresses, and so forth., while with a parked domain you are unable to do any of those things. As an illustration, if you're building localized sites under different country-code domain names, you shall be able to work on them, but at the same time, visitors shall be redirected to the primary site.
