DNS URL Redirect: What Works and What Doesn’t

If you need a dns url redirect, the first thing to clear up is simple: DNS does not redirect web traffic. DNS only answers with records like A, AAAA, or CNAME. The actual redirect happens on a web server, reverse proxy, or registrar feature sitting in front of the domain.

This is where many setups go slightly sideways. A domain owner points a record and expects example.com to forward to www.example.com or to a new site path, but nothing moves. DNS did its job. It translated the name to an IP. It did not tell the browser to go somewhere else.
