Forwarding
Netz0 provides a free forwarding service with your new domain registration. A forwarding service allows you to start using your new domain name without having an Internet server or hosting service. Usually, you would point a domain name to a web service by changing the nameservers on the domain name to the server names provided by your hosting or cloud company. Alternatively, if you already have a server, you can just use our DNS service to point it directly to the public IP by creating the proper DNS records. But if you are not in control of an Internet server or don’t have a hosting service, our free forwarding service still allows you to use your domain name.
With the free forwarding service, we host the domain for you and redirect all the visitor’s traffic to the Internet direction that you instruct us. This direction can be any URL on the Internet, like a page, a file download, an image, a document, whatever you want. For example, a Facebook fan page, your Twitter account, a free blog service or any other Internet page address. With our free forwarding service, you can also use your domain with free hosting services or free pages that generally don’t allow users to host a domain name directly on their servers.
We also include an email forwarding service. Since people using a forwarding service typically don’t have access to a server under their control, it also means they are not able to host an email account for the domain. With the additional email forwarding service, we can also create a free alias direction on your domain and redirect all new messages to your current email address. With both forwarding services anyone to use a domain name for free.
Currently our free forwarding service is limited to 1 URL redirection and 1 email redirection. If you need more advanced usages for your Internet domain, please consider buying a hosting service or server to fully benefit from all the services on a domain name.
