Forward your domain name in three steps

Setting up forwarding is straightforward. Choose your name, place your order and set the forwarding destination — done.

Step 1

Choose your domain name

Choose a domain name that suits your brand, business or project. Use our domain checker to see whether your desired name is still available and pick the extension that suits you best.

Step 2

Order your domain name

Order your domain name via our website. After payment your domain is registered immediately and appears in your control panel. A hosting package is not required — you can add one later.

Step 3

Set your forwarding destination

Go to your domain name in the control panel and enter the web address you want to forward to. The setting is active immediately and you can easily adjust the destination at any time.

Check availability

Check instantly whether your domain name is still available

Enter your desired name and see straight away which extensions are available. Free forwarding service included with every registration.

Tip: also try variations such as .com or .be.

Examples of use

Where will you forward your domain name?

A forwarded domain name can be used for more purposes than you might expect. These are the most common uses among our customers.

Social media profile

Forward your domain name to your LinkedIn, Instagram or Facebook page. This lets you share a short, professional web address instead of a long and unreadable social media URL.

External webshop

Do you have a webshop on an external platform such as Etsy or Shopify? Forward your own domain name there and give your online shop a more professional and recognisable appearance.

Campaign or landing page

Use a catchy domain name for a temporary promotion, event or campaign. You send visitors directly to the right page without having to build a separate website at all.

Alternative domain names

Have you registered multiple extensions or variations of your name? Forward them all to your main domain so visitors always end up in exactly the right place automatically.

Frequently asked questions about domain forwarding

Below you will find answers to common questions about our free forwarding service. Can't find yours? We are happy to help.

Yes, the forwarding service is included as standard and free of charge with every domain name you register or transfer with us. You only pay the annual domain fee — no extra costs for setting up or using the forwarding service.

Yes, you can update the forwarding destination at any time via our control panel. The change takes effect immediately. You can update the destination as often as you like.

That depends on your situation. Forwarding and Managed DNS are both included as standard, but are not used at the same time on the same domain name. If you use Managed DNS for email or other records, you handle forwarding via a DNS record instead of the forwarding service.

Not sure what works best in your situation? We are happy to help.

Yes, forwarding works independently of a hosting package or website. You can forward your domain name to any web address straight after registration — even if you do not have your own website yet. A useful temporary solution until your website is ready.

Yes, you can set up multiple domain names to all forward to the same web address. This is a popular way to protect variants and extensions of your name — all visitors will always end up on the right page.

The forwarding setting is usually active within a few minutes after saving it in the control panel. In some cases it may take up to an hour before the setting is visible worldwide due to DNS propagation.
