  13. Enter information for domain to forward to.

    • Host Name
    • Leave the Host Name space empty if you wish to set the forward for yourdomain.com, enter www in the Host Name space if you wish the redirect to be for www.yourdomain.com.

      If you wish to have both the www and non www versions of your domain forward you will need to create a forward for each of these.

    • Address
    • Enter the URL that you wish to have your domain forwarded to.

    • Priority
    • This field is to be left blank as this field is for MX records only
