What is IP Pointing?
IP Pointing enables you to point your domain name to a specific
IP (Internet Protocol) address on the Internet. An IP Address is
a unique string of numbers, usually shown in groups separated by
periods (e.g., 123.123.123.123), that identifies a computer connected
to the Internet.
When to use IP Pointing
IP Pointing is a great feature to use if your website has a static
IP address. With IP, visitors moving through your site will always
see your domain and the file name of the page they are on, instead
of the IP address and file name.
When to use Website Redirection
You should use Website Redirection (instead of Domain Pointing)
if:
* you need to enter a port number after your IP address (e.g.,
http://123.123.123.123:90)
* you need to enter a subdirectory or a filename after your IP address (e.g.,
http://209.153.199.2/subdirectory)
