Not busting your b's at all but there are a few accepted terms used to describe phishing components
The site "album32.com" isn't a 'fake' site.
It's acting as a 'redirector'.
A redirector redirects to either another redirector or to the actual phishing page.
album32.com = 'redirector' or 'redirector page'.
Whereas .ihtts.com/index.php?s=dot is the 'fake' page or preferably referred to as the 'phishing page'.
One reason making the distinction between a redirector & a phsh content host matters is that different approaches will made regarding whether a page is a redirector or a phish content host.
