There are two separate services that you’ll need for a functioning website - a domain and a hosting plan for it. If you type the domain name in your web browser, you see the content that is uploaded within the hosting account, but if that domain is not linked to such an account or to an e-mail service, it's parked. To put it differently, the domain name is registered and you are its owner, but it doesn't have any content of its own. Rather, it can open either a pre-made “Under Construction / For Sale” page from the registrar company, or it can be forwarded to any other URL of your choice. The advantage of parking a domain address is that you can keep it and make certain that nobody else will take it. At the same time, it won't occupy a slot for a hosted domain address inside your account. You may also park domain names if you have a .com, for example, and you register domain names with other extensions like .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
If you get a shared website hosting plan through our company, you'll be able to register as many domains as you would like and park any one of them with a few mouse clicks using your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Through our feature-rich Domain Manager instrument, you can select from several templates and add your own text to any one of them. If you'd like to forward a domain address, all it requires is to type the URL, save it, and you'll be all set. You are able to un-park a domain address and host it in your account just as easily and our system is going to do all the needed changes - update the domain address servers, create DNS records for it, create a domain folder inside the File Manager part of your account, etcetera. If you have a lot of domain names registered through our company, you’ll be able to use a filter to see just the parked or just the hosted ones for simpler management. Having in mind you could park a domain only with the registrar, you can employ this feature only for domains that are registered through us, but not through another provider.
Parked Domains in Semi-dedicated Servers
With each and every semi-dedicated server we offer you are going to have the freedom to park as many domains that are registered with us as you wish. Given that only the registrar company can offer a parking feature, you can't park domain addresses that are only hosted on our advanced cloud hosting platform. Using the Domain Manager section of your Hepsia hosting CP you are able to park and un-park domains with just a few clicks and filter all domains that you have by their status, for simpler control. We offer a variety of templates you can use and if you prefer, you could also include some custom text to any one of them. If you choose to un-park a domain and host it within your account, you will not need to do anything manually - our system will create a domain folder inside the File Manager section and will set up all the needed DNS records so that your domain address works properly and starts opening the content you upload for it on our servers.
