I am looking for some kind of script, apps, or any kind or program that will let me have a complete archive of all of may domains and basically redirect each one to either my server, parking program or affiliate pages. I know there are certain scripts out there with a control panel to organize /redirect domains but I want to take my domains one step furthur and have some of them redirect only on a hour, day, week, month schedule. This step is very important since some of my domains perform better at certain times of the day, week and/or month.

Is there anything out there that can do this?

I don't see how hard it would be. Just create a MySQL database with the domain,redirect_on,redirect_off,redirect_to

then just have like:

domain1.com,10:00:00,14:30:00,http://www.server
domain1.com,14:31:00,23:59:59,http://www.parking.program
domain1.com,00:00:00,09:59:59,http://www.affiliate.page

etc etc

When someone visits your page it will get the domain and time, access MySQL and redirect accordingly.

Would I need to do create a dB for each domain, which means that I would need to create server space for each domain?

I would like to find something that would manage 500+ domains all from one central location.

I am a bit familiar with CPANEL mySQL but I have no idea where to start and create what you proposed. Any suggestions or guidance would be appreciate :)

I'll try and find time to create something, but it probably wont be for a week due to present time restraints.

if there's a market for this, I might develop a solution...either as a install-on-your-server product or 'point-the-DNS-to-us and edit the parameters'

Great tip! I use a php script to rotate my domains, but I didn't realize you could do something like this with mySQL. I'm a dummy when it comes to SQL, so please post to this thread or PM me when you have further instructions. Thanks!
