Hi there I am quite a new noobie at this Basically, I use Godaddy for domains and Hosgator for host. I have 3 domains The primary one say is....http://www.internet-match.com so therefore, I would use to open the hostgator as http://www.internet-match.com/cpanel sicne it is my primary domain right? Alright, now, I have the other 2 domains I just purchased say... 1) http://www.comfortlivingstyle.com 2) http://www.sportsuperfans.com All of the 3 domains have not been built for html as they are used for re-direct URL. Say...I found a site that is http://www.livinghouse.com/youreferalusername AND http://www.findcars.com/youreferalusername I want to MASK it totally.....i.e. From http://www.livinghouse.com/youreferalusername----------> http://www.comfortlivingstyle.com And the same for 2) How do I actually do that? I mean I do not want redirect URL that simple which I know how to do that under Hostgator cpanel, what I mean is...when they log or type on the website i.e. http://www.comfortlivingstyle.com, no matter what, where and how they click within the site, it still remains as: http://www.comfortlivingstyle.com? I mean I went to Godaddy account and clicked on Forwarding That's where I get confused becasue I dunno what URL I put under "enabling fowarding" in the Forwarding and what other info I put on the Masking tab after I enabled it If anyone could let me know what I should do would be very much appreciated please? Thanks
Hm....to make it simple, let me put it this way... Say I got a site called http://ebay.com (obviously is not mine, lol) and I want to mask or cloak it totally so that no matter what you click on, it will go as http://www.ebay.com on the URL and nothing else, no long URL of ebays of a specific link you click on I hope it helps better in simplifying my question? Thanks
The forwarding URL is the URL of the actual site they are going to (http://www.livinghouse.com/youreferalusername, in your example). For masking, you put what site you want to appear in the navigation bar. It can call be done within GoDaddy's domain manager.
aaaaaaahhh I get it... what about like http://www.reviewme.com and http://www.mxyzplk.com/go/reviewme.php it will have the same result. I use PHP redirection.
Easy redirect using .htaccess Create a file named .htaccess in the public_html directory since its a cPanel server Insert in the file the following text (obviously replace the domains with yours) RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.old-domain.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.new-domain.com/$1 [R=301,L] Code (markup):
Create file index.php or index.html and put in any host folder you like to redirect :- or <frame src="http://redirectdomain.com/">
