First of all. What's a Reverse Proxy (RP)?
A reverse proxy is a server that sits in front of web servers and forwards client (e.g. web browser) requests to those web servers. See More
Basically is a Proxy that stands between End Users (like you) and a Website.
When a user requests a website, for example afflift.com it goes directly to the servers where afflift.com is hosted.
But what if you could use other domain name to serve traffic for afflift.com? For example: thebestaffiliateforum.com
You can and it's really easy:
1. Register the domain: thebestaffiliateforum.com
2. Setup a Ubuntu server, install nginx.
3. Configure your DNS records and point @ record to your ubuntu server.
4. Create a Reverse Proxy with Nginx that hosts thebestaffiliateforum.com but the request goes directly to afflift.com.
What you have now is a reverse proxy that get requests for thebestaffiliateforum.com but
