The hosted domains feature of a website hosting account refers to the amount of registered domain names that one could add within the same account. Registering a domain and hosting it are 2 completely different services although a lot of people consider them to be the exact same thing. While the registration ensures that you become the owner of a certain domain address, the hosting element is what actually allows you to have a web site since this is where your data and e-mails will be. As these are 2 separate services, it is possible to register a new domain with one company and host it with another by modifying its name servers (DNS) - the domain shall work in the exact same way as if it was registered and hosted with the same company. It's also important to know that changing the hosting means pointing the domain to a different company and not transferring it.
Hosted Domains in Web Hosting
One of the differences between our web hosting packages is the number of domain names that you can host in a single account. Owning more domain names with active websites for them means employing additional server system resources, so the more domains you would like to host, the more expensive the package. In this way, we offer you the possibility to choose a cheaper plan if you'd like to have just 1 or a few web sites. In the same time, you can always upgrade the package or keep the current one and only add additional slots for hosting more domain addresses within your existing account, so you'll never be limited by this feature. Regardless of how many domains you host, there's no limit how many domains you can register in your account and it's your choice if you'll also host them or you will direct them to already existing domains using the parking feature.
Hosted Domains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you acquire a semi-dedicated server plan through our company, you will be able to host as many domain addresses as you want no matter whether you register them here or you already own them through a different company. We've decided not to limit this feature because the semi-dedicated plans are rather powerful and the load they are able to handle is fairly high, so it wouldn't make sense to be able to host a fixed number of domain addresses. The accounts are managed using the Hepsia CP, which will give you complete control over all of your hosted domains. You can add a new domain address with a couple of mouse clicks and everything is done quickly and intuitively, unlike alternative Control Panels where you might even have to switch between separate accounts to manage a couple of domain names. In the event you register a new domain on our end, it'll be hosted automatically in your semi-dedicated account.
Hosted Domains in VPS Web Hosting
With our Linux VPS web hosting you'll get a lot of system resources at your disposal and since you are going to have your own server, it's only natural that you can host as many domains as you would like. You can select from three website hosting Control Panels throughout the registration procedure and depending on your choice there are two different alternatives. If you choose our in-house made Hepsia CP, all domain names hosted on the server will be handled together through one account and newly registered domains will be hosted automatically, while if you select cPanel or DirectAdmin, you will be able to create a separate account for every domain address and for new registrations you'll have to add the domains manually. The second alternative could be more convenient if you need to give access to a certain domain to a third party without granting them access to the entire server or to other domains hosted on it.
