Hi guys, I'm new on this forum, since I'm an open-source apache/php/mysql developer I dunno if there are peeps here just like me. But anyway, I need all information I can get to solve my problem.
---
I want the ability for people to be able to host their sites on their own domain using their own IP. For example:the actual page is stored at myworld.mysite.com with IP 1.2.3.4user have a domain myworld.comwhen I enter myworld.com it will load the content of myworld.mysite.comalthough this can be solved using redirection or DNS settings.so basically the what we will see on the browser status bar being load is something like: http://myworld.com/blog/2009/12/02/sample-content instead of http://myworld.mysite.com/blog/2009/12/02/sample-content the purpose of this is for Google to index/recognize the content as actually myworld.com, not myworld.mysite.com.
with this I'm thinking about apache directive (htaccess)
thanks in advance
Reynolds,I suggest you do a DNS redirection. You may need to contact your domain provider on how to do this. I've had my domain redirected to a Yahoo hosted site. So instead of the Yahoo domain appearing, my domain shows up in its place.Cheers,ServerJockeyhttp://www.serverjock.com

I have a full control over my domain(s) and have access to DNS Management Tool (under GoDaddy.com).
I'f my assumption is not wrong, redirection - you access the site using mydomain.com but then redirect the site from mysite.yahoosite.com. I think what you meant was URL cloacking? In anycase, either method wont work for me... cause when we look at the http(header) request details it still identifies that the site and resources came from yahoosite.com and not mydomain.com
What I want to do is to fool search engine crawlers (including Google, Yahoo, etc.) that what they're crawling/indexing is myworld.com, eventhough the actual site is hosted at not myword.mysite.com
That is correct I meant cloaking. I'm not an expert in SEO but I make sure that I focus on my META tags, keywords and page body to contain what I want users to see. I believe Google will display results based on relevance and not the source where the page came from.Just my 2 cents.
You're right about it, this is relative to SEO. The reason I need to do this is for users be able to access their site using their own domain. at the same time their sites would show on search engines with their own domains, not as a sub domain. Right now, I'm still doing research on this...
By the way, thanks ServerJockey :)
Hi,
You could create an index file with the following code.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title>This is my site</title></head><FRAMESET FRAMEBORDER="0" BORDER="0" ROWS="*,100%" COLS="100%" MARGINWIDTH="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0"> <FRAME TARGET="1" NAME="2" SRC="blank.htm" MARGINWIDTH="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" BORDER="0" noresize scrolling="no"> <FRAME TARGET="1" NAME="1" SRC="myworld.mysite.com" BORDER="0" noresize></FRAMESET></html>
and also create another file blank.htm
