When you have a few domains with different extensions and you need all of them to open the very same website, you may have the site under one of them and redirect the rest. There are a number of approaches to forward one domain name to another, like the so-called domain parking. When your hosting package permits it, though, it shall be better if you host all of the domains and set up a URL redirect, not a domain redirect. The primary difference between the two is that while a domain is hosted, you can still have content for it, create subdomains, e mail addresses, and so on., while with a parked domain you can't do any of those things. For instance, if you're building localized Internet sites under various country-code domain names, you will be able to work on them, but at the same time, visitors will be forwarded to the main site.
