It is a tool by which you can direct the traffic visiting your URL to another url which may also belong to you or to your affiliate marketing website.
The service is free of cost and can be availed by visiting the settings of your domain name and choosing the domain forwarding tool. In the URL address, enter the web address that you want to be the destination of your domain.
It is a great method to sign up for an affiliate program and direct your domain directly to your destination URL by using the affiliate link in the Domain forwarding Window of your domain.
For example, I have this domain called CraveMoney.com
But when you search for cravemoney.com , you are directly taken to Easy-forex.com which is where I have forwarded my domain to, using my affiliate link. When someone signs-up with the website using my domain, I am paid some commission as an affiliate.
Using the Masking option
Another option that is asked when forwarding a domain is MASKING to be enabled or disabled.
Masking means whether the user or the visitor of the website should know that they are being taken to another website or not.
If you enable the masking, i.e., Masking is ON, then the URL in the web browser will show your original domain name and user will not have the slightest indication that they have been taken to another web address. They may consider the destination website to be your original one.
While if you disable the masking, i.e., Masking is OFF, then the URL in the web browser will show the domain name of the website on which you have forwarded the visitor or the URL and user will know that they have been taken to another web address.

So, domain forwarding is a small but essential tool which may help you generate significant income online with almost any domain name, if used properly.
Go and enable it now if you have any unused or un-parked domain.
Good Luck!!
