Adding Domains To Your Account

We recently made some changes to our handling of DNS. Without getting into what DNS is or the kinds of changes we made, this was undoubtebly a much needed change with benefits both to us and our clients.

For our clients, it means you now have the ability to add Parked or Addon Domains right from Cpanel without having to contact Tech Support. So, what are Parked and Addon Domains?

1) Parked Domains: Let's say you own domain.com, domain.net and domain.org. If your main account is domain.com, you can add a parked domain so the .net and .org variations also point to your main account. In other words, all domains point to the same hosted space.

To do this, login to Cpanel and click on "Parked Domans" under the "Domains" section. Enter the domain name for your parked domain and click "Add Domain". You're done.

2) Addon Domains: Let's say you want to point a domain name to your account, but you want it to have it's own page. For example, you already have domain.com and would like to add domain2.com so it has it's own separate webpage.

To do this, login to Cpanel and select "Addon Domains" under "Domains". Enter your domain name and then specify the location folder and password. Click Add domain and you're done.

Some things to keep in mind...

1) For Parked and Addon Domains you need to register these names first. I can help you with this, of course.

2) With Addon Domains, each domain will share hosting space with the main account. This also means the same Cpanel will serve all Addon domains, so be careful whom you give admin access to.

3) Email addresses can easily be added for Parked and Addon domains. To do this, login to Cpanel on the main account and select "Email Accounts". When adding a new account you'll notice a dropdown menu showing all the domains pointed to your account.

4) Be sure to watch the "Video Tutorials" located in each section of Cpanel which provide step by step instructions for adding these domains to your account.

If you have any questions, just let me know.
