Offers *FREE* URL redirection service. 

Register your current URL as http://visitweb.com/<your choice>.

Ideal for ISP based home pages that have unfriendly style URL's

no. it's a redirection service. (Just like pobox.com's well known one,
by the reading of the above).

Of course, I wouldn't want to do business with companies that do such
blatant cross posting, myself.

Well, I think the main concern with that clause in the AUP is of aliasing
to IP addresses, which will at some stage break when Demon remove them
in favour of a different method of virtual hosting.
