Thank you. That's what I thought and have been doing. What I thought more about is using Cloudflare's Bot Fight Mode in the free version of Cloudflare. Should I do that?

Hi

you can also redirect using url redirect
where you point > www.dnstore.com to nametrader.com

i do same for names like > sop.net which points to urlpick.com/sop.html

imo...

1) Instructions for cloudflare, https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/e...rding-or-redirects-with-Cloudflare-Page-Rules

2) Use dynadot dns to forward,

The best option is the cloudflare. The second best is, DNS fowarding. if you have a unique IP address, just use the same IP for your old domain.

The third best option is URL for forwarding. Most URL forwarding will not forward "https://" so the forwarding will break on browsers that automatically upgrade to a secure connection.
