The way it works is you register a domain name with the redirection
service ... say company.com ... the DNS then points company.com to the
redirection server's IP ... you connect to port 80 ... the redirection
server see's that you have requested company.com, it then looks up the
IP and port for the REAL company.com web site and forwards traffic to
that IP and port.
