cPanel redirect a virtual domain name to another URL

In cPanel, redirecting a domain name to another one is pretty easy ! See below a full example for a redirection of all requests from virtual domain lifetravelsv.com (registered at godaddy.com) to the web domain wcifly.com, both hosted on ex2 hosting.

Starting for the domain list on the Addon Domains menu, find the correct domain, and click on Manage Redirection

cPanel add an external domain to existing web hosting : addon domain added to the addon domains list

There, simply add the URL of the website to which this domain should redirect

A confirmation message should appear

And that’s it ! Now, when accessing the domain lifetravelsv.com, the request is automatically redirected to the other domain wcifly.com
