Abstract

A web server for redirecting requested URLs from clients to customer-specified web pages is disclosed herein. The web server and th clients are connected to a communications network, and the web server includes a communication interface for receiving requested URLs from the clients. A first database containing customer URLs for web pages which have been assigned to at least certain of the requested URLs is also provided. Each of such web pages is stored on a computer connected to the communications network. The web server determines whether a first requested URL received at the communication interface from a first client corresponds to a first customer URL, and if so establishes a first session connection between the web page for the first customer URL and the first client.
