There are 2 services that you need for a functioning web site - a domain name plus a web hosting plan for it. If you type the domain address in your Internet browser, you see the content that’s uploaded within the website hosting account, but if that domain address isn't linked to such an account or to an email service, it is parked. In other words, the domain address is registered and you're its owner, but it lacks content of its own. Rather, it can open either a pre-made “Under Construction / For Sale” Internet page from the registrar company, or it may be forwarded 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 is going to take it. Meanwhile, it will not take a slot for a hosted domain address in your account. In addition, you can park domain names if you have a .com, for example, and you register domains with other extensions such as .net, .org or country-code ones to direct them to the main website so as to protect a brand name.

Parked Domains in Cloud Website Hosting

With each and every cloud website hosting plan which we offer you will be able to park as many domain names as you want and unlike other companies, we don't have any service fees for that. However, you can do this just for domain addresses which are registered through our company as parking a domain is possible only through the registrar, but not through the host unless you have the two services with the same company. We've got a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can easily park and un-park domain addresses, choose one of the templates that we provide and add custom text to it, or forward a domain to a URL of your choice. If you host a parked domain address, our system will change its name servers and set up a folder in the File Manager automatically. Also you can set filters and see only the parked or only the hosted domain names, that will permit you to handle them really easy.
