In case you have a few domains with different extensions and you need all of them to open exactly the same website, you may have the site under one of them and redirect the rest. There are different ways to redirect one domain to another, like the so-called domain parking. When your website 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 main difference between the two is that while a domain is hosted, you can still have content for it, set up subdomains, e mail addresses, and so on., while with a parked domain it's not possible to do any of these things. As an example, if you're building localized Internet sites under several country-code domains, you will be able to work on them, but meanwhile, visitors will be forwarded to the main Internet site.
