How to host a domain name
You can host multiple domain names in a single cloud web hosting account with us. The first domain name that will be hosted in your account is specified during the signup procedure. In order to properly host additional domain names, there are three requirements:
- The domain name must be registered. If you wish to register a new domain name, please refer to the article -How to register a domain name.
- The name servers of the domain name must be changed with the ones specified in the Hosted Domains section. For more information, please check the following articles - Changing the name servers of a domain name.
- The domain name must be added to the Hosted Domains menu. More information is provided below.
You can use the Site Management > Hosted Domains section of the Web Hosting Control Panel to add additional domain names in your account with us. In the field that is titled "Enter a domain name" you should input the domain name that you would like to host with us (that will replace the predefined text my-best-domain.com). After that you must click on the "Add Domain" button and the domain name will be added to the list of the hosted domains.
Once you add the domain name, a red "X" sign will be displayed under the DNS column. Once the name server changes propagate (this may require up to 24 hours), the DNS status will be updated as well. More information on that matter is available in the article - "Why is there a red "X" (DNS error) for my domain's name servers?"
*Important note: Please have in mind that in order to host additional domain names, you must make sure that your hosting plan can support it. For that you should refer to the Account Usage table available on the left side of the Web Hosting Control Panel.There you can see the number of the domain names that you are currently hosting and the number of the domain names that you can add. If the available amount is zero, you must upgrade your account in order to host more domain names.
