If you want to create a web site, you need two things - your own domain name and a hosting plan for it. The domain registration is the actual website address that you enter in an Internet browser to access a website, while the hosting space is where your site data will be. These are two closely connected, yet independent services, although many people think that registering the domain name is enough. Much like the disk space and the monthly traffic features that a given web hosting plan offers, there are a certain number of registered domain names that you can add as hosted which means that you can have the web content for them in some account even if the domains have been registered using a different firm. In technical terms, it doesn't matter whether a domain is registered and hosted with the same company or is registered with one company and directed to another - either way your sites will operate the very same way.
Hosted Domains in Website Hosting
The website hosting solutions that we offer enable you to host a different amount of domain addresses. This way, you can select what package to purchase and how much to spend based on your needs. If you decide to host more domain addresses in the future than the amount the current plan allows you to, you can easily upgrade your entire package or keep the same one and just add more slots for hosted domains. If you choose to use the registration services of some other company, you will be able to see the name servers you have to set for your domains so as to direct them to our cloud platform in the Hosted Domains area of the Control Panel on our end. If you prefer to have everything in one location, however, there is no limit on the amount of domain names you can register/transfer as part of your account whatever the hosting plan you have selected. Then you could decide if you will host them or you'll direct them to other existing domains.
Hosted Domains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Since our Linux semi-dedicated packages are really powerful, we have decided not to set any limit on the amount of the domain names which you can host if you purchase such a plan. This feature is unlimited by default, and not on demand or following some upgrade, so it's under your control how many domain addresses you'll add and how you'll use the system resources of your semi-dedicated hosting account. The plans are controlled via our in-house built Hepsia web hosting CP which will allow you to see and manage all hosted domain names in one place, erasing the need to go through different accounts as you will need to do with all other hosting Control Panels. Additionally, there is no limit how many domains you'll be able to register or transfer and it is your choice how many of them you will host within the account.
