The hosted domains feature of a website hosting account denotes the amount of registered domain names which you can include in the very same account. Registering a domain name and hosting it are two completely different services although some people consider them to be the very same thing. While the registration signifies that you become the owner of a given domain, the hosting element is what in fact enables you to have a web site because this is where your files and email messages are going to be. Because these are 2 different services, it is possible to register a new domain address with one company and host it with another by modifying its name servers (DNS) - the domain name shall work in the exact same way just as if it was registered and hosted using the same company. It's also very important to know that changing the hosting means directing the domain address to a different company and not transferring it.
Hosted Domains in Cloud Web Hosting
The cloud web hosting packages that we provide allow you to host a different number of domain names. In this way, you can pick what plan to buy and how much to pay in accordance with your requirements. If you decide to host more domain names later on than the amount the current plan permits you to, you can effortlessly upgrade your entire package or even keep the same one and only add more slots for hosted domain names. If you decide to use the registration services of a different company, you'll be able to see the name servers that you have to set for your domains in order to direct them to our cloud platform in the Hosted Domains section of the CP on our end. If you prefer to have everything in 1 location, however, there is no limit for the number of domain names which you can register/transfer within your account regardless of the hosting package that you have chosen. Then you could decide if you will host them or you will forward them to other existing domains.
Hosted Domains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Due to the fact that our Linux semi-dedicated packages are rather powerful, we have decided not to set any limit on the amount of the domain addresses you can host if you buy such a plan. This feature is unlimited by default, not on demand or following some upgrade, so it is your choice how many domain names you are going to add and how you'll employ the resources of the semi-dedicated hosting account. The plans are controlled through our in-house built Hepsia hosting Control Panel which will permit you to see and manage all hosted domain names in one place, removing the need to go through different accounts as you will need to do with all other hosting Control Panels. There is also no restriction how many domain addresses you'll be able to register or transfer and it is your choice how many of them you will host within the account.
Hosted Domains in VPS
With our Linux VPS packages you'll get ample system resources readily available and since you'll have your own server, it's only natural that you can host as many domain names as you would like. You can pick among 3 website hosting Control Panels during the registration procedure and based on your choice there are two different alternatives. If you pick our in-house built Hepsia CP, all domains hosted on the server are going to be handled collectively through a single account and newly registered domains will be hosted automatically, while if you pick cPanel or DirectAdmin, you'll be able to create a separate account for every domain address and for new registrations you will have to add the domains manually. The second alternative may just be more convenient when you have to grant access to a given domain to a third party without giving them access to the entire server or to other domains hosted on it.
