Introduction
Domain parking and forwarding are techniques used to manage your domain names efficiently, even if you don’t have a full website ready. They help you secure your brand and direct traffic where you need it.
What is Domain Parking?
-
Parking a domain means reserving it without hosting a full website.
-
Visitors may see a temporary page stating the domain is “under construction” or “coming soon.”
-
Useful for protecting brand names, future projects, or unused domains.
What is Domain Forwarding?
-
Domain forwarding redirects visitors from one domain to another.

Example: mybusiness.tz can forward to www.cloudzanzibar.com.
-
Forwarding can be permanent (301 redirect) or temporary (302 redirect).
Benefits

Marketing Flexibility: Direct multiple domains to the main site.
