That's it! Your website is now being redirected.

It can take several minutes (and in some cases a few hours) for the redirection to start working.

Please note, that in order to use our redirection service your domain's A records must be pointing to the IP address 202.124.241.178. If your domain and DNS are hosted with Webcentral, when you turn on the redirection service these records are automatically added. For more information about A records and how to create them, click here.

In addition due to technical limitations https redirection is not available - please reach out to the hosting provider of the site you wish to re-direct to and ensure the landing URL has an SSL installed and that 'force HTTPS' is enabled. For information on ordering an SSL for a website you already own please refer to 'ordering a dedicated SSL'.
