Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a method for creating and using a dynamic universal resource locator to link an internet end user to a host selected from two or more hosts on the internet. The method comprises the steps of: (a) obtaining information related to either or both of the end user and/or the two or more hosts; (b) selecting, based upon the obtained information, one of the two or more hosts; and (c) generating a link to the selected host. Also disclosed is a method for connecting a user to a dial-up host having an internet domain name and a temporary internet address. This method comprises the steps of: (a) registering the temporary internet address of the dial-up host with the dynamic domain name server; (b) intercepting a locator request for the domain name of the dial-up host by returning the internet address of the company server; (c) processing requests from the user on the company server; and (d) providing the user with the temporary internet address of the dial-up host upon reaching a predetermined point in the programming of the company server.
