There are two separate services that you’ll need for a working website - a domain name and a website hosting plan for it. Each time you type the domain address in your browser, you see the content that’s uploaded inside the web hosting account, but if that Internet 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. As a substitute, it can open either a pre-made “Under Construction / For Sale” webpage from the registrar company, or it could be directed to some other URL of your choice. The main advantage of parking a domain name is that you can keep it and be sure that no one else will take it. Meanwhile, it will not block a slot for a hosted domain in your account. In addition, you can park domains if you have a .com, for instance, and you register domain names with other extensions such as .net, .org or country-code ones to forward them to the main website as a way to protect a brand name.

Parked Domains in Shared Website Hosting

With each and every shared website hosting plan we offer you’ll be able to park as many domains as you wish and unlike other companies, we don't have any service fees for that. However, this can be done exclusively for domain addresses which are registered through us as parking a domain is possible only through the registrar, but not through the host unless you have the two services with just one company. We have a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can effortlessly park and un-park domain addresses, select one of the templates that we offer and add custom text to it, or forward a domain address to a URL of your choice. If you host a parked domain name, our system will modify its name servers and set up a folder in the File Manager automatically. Also you can set filters to check out only the parked or only the hosted domains, that will enable you to control them really easy.
