Abstract
Systems and methods of the present invention allow for sharing domain names based on a network address or a geographical location of a Requester. Multiple independent parties (Content Providers), which may be located in different geographical areas, may use the same domain name to host their websites. The Requester may access data (e.g. websites, FTP resources) associated with a shared domain name. A Routing DNS may determine the network address or the geographical location of the Requester and provide the Requester with a network address of a Server associated with Requester's network address or geographical location. Each Server is maintained by its own Content Provider.
