Redirects do not keep the URL

We have two sub-domains that we redirect to third party web-sites. We do this through IIS. The problem is that when we go to one of the domains (store.companyname.com), for example, the URL converts over to our third party URL, but we want it to remain store.companyname.com.

Is it possible to do this?

SeoGuy,
You might be able to get away with it by using Domain Forwarding with your Domain Registrar. I have not personally tried it, but do remember a feature that allows forwarding, while maintaining the original domain. What might be an issue for you is the SSL.

IIS can do URL Masking (Cloaking, Shadowing), but you again run into the SSL issue. The masking is also limited to the server it is on. Third party IIS modules might be able to do it.

Good luck
