The hosted domains feature of a web hosting account denotes the amount of registered domain names that one could include within the same account. Registering a domain address and hosting it are two different services although some people consider them to be the very same thing. While the registration means you become the owner of a given domain name, the hosting aspect is what really enables you to have a website because this is where your data and e-mails are going to be. Because these are two independent 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 address will work in the exact same way just as if it was registered and hosted with the same company. Additionally, it is very important to know that changing the hosting means directing the domain name to an alternative company and not transferring it.

Hosted Domains in Cloud Website Hosting

One of the main differences between our cloud website hosting packages is the number of domain addresses that you can host in one account. Having more domain names with active websites for them means employing additional server system resources, hence the more domain names you intend to host, the more expensive the plan. That way, we offer you the possibility to choose a cheaper plan if you wish to have just 1 or a few websites. In the same time, you’ll be able to upgrade the package or keep the current one and only add additional slots for hosting more domains within your existing account, so you'll never be limited by this feature. No matter how many domains you host, there is no limit how many domains you can register in your account and it's your decision if you'll also host them or you will forward them to already existing domains via the parking feature.
