information NetworkSolutions URL forwarding - Any free alternative

simran.net · Oct 16, 2019

Hi friends
Unlike other domain registrars, NS is charging for url foward.

Previously I remember some services like DomainNManager.com offering to use their name servers and we can forward our domain to any url using their website.

Is there any service like that now?

I actually need to verify some domains to list at namerific which require url forwarding to verify ownership and url forwarding is the only way they accept.

Can anybody suggest any alternative without paying for url forward or hosting

Hello , try free cpanel at awardspace.com , change nameservers on NS so your domain points to hosting , then you can redirect domain from cpanel. I did it for my NR domains...

You can add your domains to Cloudflare free plan (you'll need to change nameservers), and then you can point them wherever you want or add URL forwarding.

Sure just add the domains to your Epik account.

Domain forwarding is free

Email forwarding is free.

I am here little confused,

I am assuming I don't have to transfer the name to epik. What I have to do is simply change the NS at Netsol with ns3 ns4 epik and then I will be able to do the forwarding?

Edited:- I tested it myself and it's iook like we can forward any domain from any register. We just need to add the name in our epik account and point the NS to epik.

Correct.

When you add the domains, it will notify you of the DNS. NS3.EPIK.COM and NS4.EPIK.COM and fine to use. They are Anycast DNS and free forwarding will work when you use that DNS.

Glad to hear it worked out for you. The TTL is just 300 seconds, so it is really fast for making updates.

So Netsol is charging for domain forwarding?

Just when you thought they couldn't stoop any lower.

Like Web.com trying to purposely put them out of biz

Web.com bought Net Sol for $405M cash in 2011.
How could anyone treat their subsidiary like this?

found out who blame (New owners, October 2018)

“Web.com Group Inc. (Nasdaq: WEB) shareholders agreed Wednesday to sell the Jacksonville-based web services and marketing company to an affiliate of Siris Capital for $2.24 billion, or $28 per share.”

Shareholder Vote: 40 million yes — 10,000 No https://www.bizjournals.com/jackson...shareholders-decide-on-2-24-billion-sale.html

We might all be surprised by their next acquisition...I heard from a friend of a friend of my barber that they might be sniffing around for another 'domain' based acquisition...

Could mean anything... US interest rates are so low.
favorable to raise. Apple with $200+ billion cash, raised $7 billion debt offering! most bizarre, compare US interest rates to some Europe..wow Germany (!!)

Admit, I never heard this source but still worth share

Network Solutions - Simply Despicable that they charge you to use a basic function of your own domain

0/5 Stars for Network Solutions

I can't believe that they can get away with this And if you win a domain at Snapnames or Namejet you are stuck with a nonfunctional domain for 2 months. And I thought Godaddy's 9.99 for their Privacy Service was bad. Shame on NetSol.
