The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Dynamic web pages per domain name

Asked by ThanksWelcome in Miscellaneous Web Development, Active Server Pages (ASP), Scripting Languages

Tags: dynamic web pages forwarded domains

Hi,  I would like to know if it could be possible to have dynamic web pages per domain name.  Let me please explain.  In advance, sorry for the long desctiption.

I have a product, that I want to promote in around 50 us states.  I bought all the 50 domain names.  So the product names go something like: MyproductVirgiania.com , MyproductCalifornia.com, MyproductTexas.com, and so on.

What I would like to do is have a single set of dynamic web pages that would show different images in the header, title, description, and some body text or contact description that would be in part different, but that would be the same to other states in other aspects, all this depending on the domain name.  The set would be of 4 pages for each, exactly the same 4 pages (ex. main, contact, services, references) but different by some dynamic aspects described above.

If I do not try a dynamic setup, I will go crazy trying to maintain this.

Here is what I understand. I understand that I will need a database that will contain the dynamic information about the 50 states, for an example the header image, the title, contact info, etc.  I understand that I will need to forward (using masking redirect)  all 50 domains to just one.  I understdand that, for each dynamic part, I will have to call a function  with the domain name as a parameter (example: getPageTitle ("MyproductCalifornia.com") , that will return different results, according to the function and the database.

So what I have no clue is:  Is this possible to pass the name of the domain as a parameter to call the function? If yes, someone could tell me of this could this be done is aspx and php (I will eventually need both) so that the domainname parameter is obtained dynamically, that would look like "get(domain)" (ex. if I am on MyproductCalifornia.com, "MyProductCalifornia.com" is returned, if I am on MyproductVirginia.com, "MyproductCalifornia.com" is returned.

If my plan is impossible (which I doubt), could you please tell me?  By the way, the reason I opted for this "50 domains solutions" is that I consider it will be better it general for adwords adds by states, and for seo in general ( I will be careful for duplicate content).  

For information, I never did any php and aspx, but I have a programmer and some web design background.   I will certainly post other questions related for next steps in other questions separately.

Thank's in advance!
