Addon domain redirects to primary domain?

[Nemanja]

I added three Addon domains in a primary domain but not going to have websites for them at this time. I want to redirects addon domains to primary domain. How can I do that?

Which web server are you using as it depends on that. There are many ways to accomplish this.
1) Set redirection through domain control panel (at registrar level)
1.1) Domain forwarding/URL forwarding
1.2) Domain masking/Frame redirect/URL masking

2) Redirection in Windows server/VPS
2.1) HTTP redirect from IIS
2.2) Rewrite rules through URL rewrite module

3) Redirection in Linux server/VPS
3.1) Domain redirection through cPanel Redirects
3.2) URL redirect using the .htaccess file

If you can provide more information then we can provide better reply.

Yes, I guess he seems like looking for 1.1 domain forwarding/redirecting. Well, does 301 or 302 redirects apply there? Or it is for just internal pages?

You can redirect all your addon domains to your primary domain using 301 redirect. You can also use domain forwarding option to redirect them to your primary domain.

If the redirecting domain have good ranking and traffic then it will pass all the link juice to your new domain. Which benefits your new site SEO.

What control panel are you using to administrate the domain and addon domains ? if are in cpanel OR plesk environment you can easily add a redirect from redirect option in the control panel.

Hii,

It's depend on your hosting panel, if you have WHM/Cpanel then your can redirect all the Addon-domain to primary domain in menu-bar "Redirects". using type 301/302. with www or without WWW.
If there is alternative, it;s has command line syetm then you have to goto each directory location then rediect each addon-domain to primary domain via edit file .htaccess.
