There are two separate services you need for a functioning website - a domain and a website hosting plan for it. When you type the domain name in your web browser, you see the content that’s uploaded within the web hosting account, but if that domain isn't linked to such an account or to an e-mail service, it is parked. Put simply, the domain name is registered and you are its owner, but it doesn't have any content of its own. Rather, it can open either a pre-made “Under Construction / For Sale” webpage from the registrar company, or it can be forwarded to any other URL of your choice. The main advantage of parking a domain is that you can keep it and make certain that no one else will take it. In the meantime, it will not take a slot for a hosted domain address in your account. You could also park domains if you have a .com, for example, and you register domain addresses with other extensions like .net, .org or country-code ones to direct them to the main website in order to protect a brand name.
Parked Domains in Cloud Web Hosting
If you acquire a cloud web hosting plan from our company, you will be able to register as many domain names as you would like and park any one of them with just a couple of mouse clicks via your Hepsia hosting CP. By using our feature-rich Domain Manager instrument, you can choose from a number of templates and add your own text to any of them. If you prefer to forward a domain address, all it requires is to type the URL, save it, and you'll be all set. You are able to un-park a domain and host it inside your account just as easily and our system is going to do all the required adjustments - update the domain servers, set up DNS records for it, set up a domain folder inside the File Manager area of your account, etc. If you have a lot of domain addresses registered using our company, you will be able to use a filter and see just the parked or only the hosted ones for easier administration. Considering you can park a domain name only with its registrar, you can use this function only for domains which are registered through us, but not through another company.
Parked Domains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you acquire a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, you will be able to register and park as many domain names as you would like. As opposed to other companies, we are not going to charge you an additional fee for this feature. You can park a domain name with just a couple of clicks through the Domain Manager tool, which you could access from the Hepsia website hosting CP. In case you decide to use a template, you are going to have a few different ones to select from and you'll be able to add custom text to each of them. The feature-rich Domain Manager allows you to set filters to see only the hosted or only the parked domains in your account. Using the same instrument, you can also un-park a domain and host it inside your account with just a mouse click. Our system will change the name servers of the domain address and will create its folder in the File Manager section, and the required DNS records for it, automatically.
