I have a tricky situation. I'm moving a website onto a hosted service, and this hosted service is a bit limited, in that not all the current resources can live on the main domain.
example.com : served by new hosting platform
example.com/blog : served by new hosting platform
example.com/slideshows -> subdomain.example.com/slideshows : redirect to new subdomain on existing hosting platform
example.com/downloads -> subdomain.example.com/downloads : redirect to new subdomain on existing hosting platform
example.com/store -> store.example.com : redirect to new subdomain on existing hosting platform
Unfortunately the new hosting platform doesn't support redirects, so any redirection has to be done before it hits the new platform. I considered DNS, but DNS works at the host name/IP level, not at the directory level. CloudFlare page rules are the only thing I can think of, but at $20/month for 20 page rules it's quite expensive. 3 rules is free, of course, which might juuuuust be enough.
Are there any other smart DNS providers that have the redirection facility that are reasonably priced?
