Domain redirect to Ebay auctions

sf2010 · 08-25-2007, 10:09 AM

Hi-

I have a niche domain name that I would like to redirect to eBay auctions.

For example, let's say someone types in "widgets.info", I want that visitor to be directed to an eBay auction page dealing with widgets.

Can someone tell me how I can get started?

TIA!

There is probably a way to do this without hosting, but here is my attempt:

index.php

PHP Code:

  <?php

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/programming/366257-domain-redirect-to-ebay-auctions.html
header("Location: http://www.target-site.com/path/to/file");

?>

Mikor is giving you the code for PHP, which is generally the best way, (rep left +) - But have you checked to see if your registrar offers free domain forwarding? I know a lot do.

Thanks for the tip, but I am looking to see if eBay will share commission with me if I redirect a visitor and s/he buys something (more akin to affiliate marketing).

For this to work , I assume I have to establish some sort of vendor relationship with eBay (or through CJ, Shareasale, etc.)?

Does eBay offer affiliate programs at all?
