Hey,
This can happen a couple of ways(I can think of at the moment):
1. “*.yoursite.com”:
1.1 Add *.yoursite.com to your DNS records as an A record
1.3 Add a new virtual host to your web server.
1.4 Use http as redirection method:
Add this to your index.html in the path set in the virtual host config
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL='http://new-website.com'" />
2. “sub.yoursite.com”:
1.1 Add sub.yoursite.com(and www.sub.yoursite.com) to your DNS records as an A record
1.2 Add a new virtual host to your web server.
1.3 Use http as redirection method:
Add this to your index.html in the path set in the virtual host config
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL='http://new-website.com'" />
There are of course a lot of other ways to do it but the first one is(in my opinion) the easiest one.
Also, if you would need somebody to do it for you - send me a mail at enmusworld@gmail.com
Cheers!
