edkaiser.com

I’ve set up WordPress today as a blog that will be about me and my experiences running an Internet Business and as a Financial Consultant. In addition to the blog, the EdKaiser.com site will include general information about me and information regarding my availability for contract services. The site is hosted along with another of my sites on HostMonster, which I’ve been using for several months and been quite happy with so far. Today I was able to do use the .htaccess file to create a bit of extra separation between the two sites. The default setup seems to be that the main domain is in the root directory, while additional domains have to be assigned to subdomains or subdirectories. That means that you get more than one URL pointing to the same page. For example you could have :

• www.domainone.com/coolpage.htm and www.domaintwo.com/coolpage.html pointing to the same page
• or www.domainone.com/domaintwo/coolerpage.htm and www.domaintwo.com/coolerpage.html pointing to the same page

But I was able to fix that by combining this from HostMonsters helpdesk (makes domainone use a subdirectory) with a simple redirect line for the second domain.
