Redirecting a URL within IIS 7

I need to redirect a website within IIS instead of using a DNS change.  What is the best way to do this?

do i need the module to do it the way it says in this article?

Specifically this part:

To enable redirection

You can perform this procedure by using the user interface (UI), by running Appcmd.exe commands in a command-line window, by editing the configuration files directly, or by writing WMI scripts.
User Interface
To use the UI

    Open IIS Manager and navigate to the level you want to manage. For information about opening IIS Manager, see Open IIS Manager (IIS 7). For information about navigating to locations in the UI based on your IIS administrative role, see Navigation in IIS Manager (IIS 7).

    In Features View, double-click HTTP Redirect.

    On the HTTP Redirect page, select Redirect requests to this destination. In the corresponding box, type the file name, directory path, or URL to which you want to redirect the user.

    In the Actions pane, click Apply.
