URL Aliasing - and redirect

[tonynoriega]

Ok, i think i found the proper answer that if you have a Google Ad, and the display URL is:

www.exampleA.com

it should go to that domain, either:

exampleA.com
subdomain.exampleA.com
examplA.com/subdirectory

i was posed a question about redirection.

what if i show display URL of:

www.exampleA.com/landingpage/index.html

and on that page, i have meta refresh:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=http://www.exampleB.com/landingpage/index.html">

with their server settings, can they disguise the URL to display in the browser as our domain: exampleA.com even though it is on their server?

if you manage to do this, you're breaking the G rules - it ain't worth the risks you're taking.

if there's a legit reason you're doing this (and i can't think of one), work with your G rep to see how they recommend doing it (if at all).

I wouldn't touch it, myself.

ehhh... i know. im getting pressure from the partner company.

as we need to "brand" our company, but direct them to the partner website becuase they are not a well known name.

but i have already decided not to try to backdoor anything.

thanks for the 2nd opinion.
