Are there any restrictions about domain names you can register?

Domain names must be no less than 3 char. longer and they can only include "a" to "z", "0" to "9" and the hyphen "-"

If you want, we can register .IT domain and subdomains, too: they are subject to the Italian Authority and are often requested from english language people, because "it" is a pronoun (domain names like "www.eat.it" or "www.drink.it" or "www.play.it" sound good).
If you want a .IT domain, you must be domiciled in the European Community (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Bretain, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Louxembourg, Nederland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden). However, if you live out of these countries, contact us: we have a solution for you...

"john.yourdomain.com" can point to "http://www.firstprovider.com/first-url" , "mary.yourdomain.com" can point to "http://secondprovider.net/second-url" , etc., so you don't have to pay any web hosting or other.

Do I need to manage my web site in a different way?

No, you'll manage your web site on your free web provider, as you usually do.

I've put a counter on my home page. Will it work correctly?

Yes, it will count all your visitors.

What do I need to do if I want to change my free web provider or my URL, etc.?

You can manage quickly the URL to redirect your domain name, metatags, mail forwards, sub-domains anytime and anywhere thanks our easy-to-use Web Administration Area, available 24/24 hours. It works in real time.

Will you insert any advertising banners, frames or pop-up windows on my pages?

No, absolutely. Our redirection service is "No Advertising" warranty!

My web site already has a domain name like "mysite.net". May I ask you "mysite.com" domain
redirection pointed to it?

Of course, so visitors can see your pages using both web addresses.

Does your redirect service work by using other national or international domains (examples:
mysite.de, mysite.au, mysite.to, etc.) ?

Of course, if you already own a domain name or you plane to register it by yourself, all you have to do is point it to our nameservers.
However, we can register for you COM/NET/ORG/INFO/BIZ/NAME/US/IT domains only and ITsubdomains (ch.it, co.it, fr.it, go.it, is.it, no.it, or.it, to.it, tv.it and others. Complete list in the domain page).

What is URL Cloaking?

Cloaking allows your users to see your new domain name on the address bar of the browser. As an instance, when you redirect "www.seaworld.com" to "www.yourprovider.net/users/seaworld/index.html", all the person viewing the site will see "www.seaworld.com" on the address bar.
That's not all. You can specify title and description and keywords metatags, so your site will be indexed by search engines using your new domain name.

Here as a web site appears on the address bar when up-loaded on a free web provider...

... and the same web site on the same web provider with Topredirect's redirection

Which are e-mail features?

Our redirection package includes unlimited e-mail forwards as whatyouwant@yourdomain.com, bill@yourdomain.com, and so on. You can forward each of them separately to any mail address. You don't need to modify your usual mail program (Outlook, etc.).

May I order a domain registration only (without redirect) ?

Of course, you can do it and, if you want, you can specify two "nameservers" where the domain name needs to point to
(something like a.xyz.com 123.99.56.121 and b.xyz.com 123.99.56.122).

How long does a redirection take?

Once we receive your payment (time depends on international payment processing), we inform you by e-mail and we start registration and redirection operations, that takes about 1-2 days depending upon a number of factors like Internic delays.
