Forward a domain to another address

Sending one name to another site — what DNS can do, what it cannot, and which of the two you need.

Updated 02 Sept 2026

People ask for forwarding to do two different jobs. One of them ডিএনএস can do on its own; the other needs a web server, and knowing which you want saves an afternoon.

If the address should change in the address bar

This is a redirect, and it is a job for a web server rather than for ডিএনএস. A visitor asks for the old name, the server answers *go here instead*, and the browser follows.

If both names should serve the same site

No redirect is needed. Add the second domain to the same hosting account and point it at the same place — both names then serve the same files, and neither address changes in the bar.

Forwarding email is a different question

Address forwarding — sending hello@ on to a mailbox elsewhere — is set up with the mailbox, not with the domain. Setting up email covers it, and the এমএক্স records have to be right first either way.

Can I forward without hosting?

Not with ডিএনএস alone, because something has to answer the request and send the redirect. The cheapest shared plan is enough — a redirect needs no files and no database.

Will a redirect hurt my search ranking?

A permanent one passes almost all of it to the new address, which is the point of using one instead of a temporary redirect. What does cost you is a chain — a name redirecting to a name that redirects again. Send it to the final address in one hop.
