Zone Redirect is a simple tool for URL redirection, also called URL forwarding, is a World Wide Web technique for making a web page available under more than one URL address. When a web browser attempts to open a URL that has been redirected, a page with a different URL is opened. Similarly, domain redirection or domain forwarding is when all pages in a URL domain are redirected to a different domain.
Zone Redirect is done for various reasons:
- for URL shortening;
- to prevent broken links when web pages are moved;
- to guide navigation into and out of a website;
- for privacy protection; and
- for hostile purposes such as phishing attacks or malware distribution.
The plugin is simple to install:
- Upload
zone-redirect
to the /wp-content/plugins/
directory
- Activate the plugin through the \'Plugins\' menu in WordPress
- Configure the options from the Zone-Redirect on sidebar
