Basically this feature in
cPanel allows you to host multiple websites
with one hosting account. It gives you full
control when you need to host new domains on
your main website!
If
you do not have a hosting account yet, you can
see how it works by logging into the live demo
for our user control panel here: Live
Demo. Once you login, you will see an icon
in the top-right area called "Addon Domains"
- click on the link and play with this feature.
This is a demo and will not actually make any
new settings.
You
can click here to view a FLASH tutorial showing
you how you can create the addon domain.
There
you will learn that Addon Domains are domain
names that point to subdirectories within your
account. To the outside world, they are just
like any other domains hosted on any server.
To you they are sub folders in your hosting
account. In fact they are more than sub folders
as each addon domain has its own FTP account
(username is the same as the sub folder name)
and CGI-BIN.
If
you have or plan to have several domain sites
hosted, do not open a hosting account for each
domain. Just pick one domain and get it hosted
with us first. To host another domain of yours,
just add it to your main hosting account using
the "Addon Domains" link from cPanel.
As you can see, our Advanced Plan gives you
up to 11 domains and our Business Plan allows
you to add up to 3 domains.
No
need to order another hosting account. Just
pick one that best suits your needs and then
add more domains to your slot as you build more
sites. Since the main site has already resolved
to our server (DNS settings have already propagated
throughout the world wide web), newly added
domains may take only a few hours to resolve
to our server. Adding a new domain is almost
as simple as creating a sub folder in your account.
There
is only one thing which is lacking. Although
the addon domain site has its own FTP and Email
account and a CGI-BIN, it does share the sub
domain with the main account. Meaning the new
add-on is redirected to the sub domain based
on the main account. The sub domain is something
like this: addon.your-main-domain.com but when
using the add-on domain the sub.domain is hidden
from the browser.
