Anyone have any suggestions about how to redirect a URL to my WWD reseller page, while masking the redirected URL? Seems that this setup breaks my browser security.

Do I need to purchase a certificate for my domain? Any ideas how I configure that? Is this a problem with my method of redirecting, and do I need to look at that? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You can set up redirection/masking directly from your domain name account (most registrars). Some, like WWD and GoDaddy allow you to even add meta data.

One way of making your WWD URL more manageable is to use http://tinyurl.com and make it shorter.

Personally, however, I feel that it is better to set up a proper website for your WWD account (via frames). IMHO this is better for the search engines than just plain redirection.
