i have several websites hosted at Godaddy and i am pretty much satisfied with this domain name registrar. it is also very easy to get coupon codes for Godaddy.

You don't have access to "the" htaccess file on GoDaddy's shared plan, but you can create your own htaccess file in the root. If you have installed the WP Super Cache plugin, I believe it creates a htaccess file for you. I have a number of 301 redirects in my htaccess file (on GoDaddy) to handle bad links.

I could have clarified a bit that I did look at each option and believe I chose the correct one. Here's what each of them say in order: 1.) Redirect files and folders to same path on destination domain, 2.) Redirect files and folders to destination domain root, 3.)
Do not redirect files and folders.

Jason -- I'd be interested in what the mouse-overs say in those last 3 options... "no redirect" jumps out as me as not doing anything!
I'm pretty sure I know what "Match Path" is. IIS will do that same thing.
However I'm not sure about "Root Redirect"
