Could someone explain to me what a domain pointer is? I thought I understood the jargon, but it seems that I don't!

Thanks

Its a tool where you can make one domain to redirect to another domain name.

Hi,

Domain pointer is a service/application that allows you to redirect internet users to another domain name.

For example,

let say I have a domain name, gredirect.com and kannywebdirect.com

When user a types gredirect.com on the browser URL text box, the user will eventually be directed to kannywebdirect.com

Other than that, domain pointer also plays an important role in email redirection. If a user send an email to kanny@gredirect.com, the email also can be redirected to the destination mail box [ this is has be to be set ]
