How do I add another domain or a subdomain? Print

  • 0

Add it in cPanel under Domains. How many you can add depends on your plan.

  • Starter. 1 site, 3 subdomains, 3 parked domains.
  • Business. 4 sites (your main site and 3 add-on domains), 10 subdomains, 5 parked domains.
  • Professional. 11 sites (your main site and 10 add-on domains), 20 subdomains, 10 parked domains.

An add-on domain is a second, separate website. A subdomain is an address in front of your domain, such as shop.yourdomain.com. A parked domain, which cPanel calls an alias, is an extra name that shows the same site.

  1. Log in to cPanel.
  2. In the Domains section, open Domains.
  3. Choose Create A New Domain.
  4. Type the domain, or the full subdomain such as shop.yourdomain.com.
  5. For a separate website, untick Share document root so it gets its own folder. Leave it ticked for a parked domain that should show your main site.
  6. Choose Submit.

A new domain also has to be pointed at your hosting account before it will load. See How do I point my domain at my hosting account?

If cPanel says you have reached your limit, see How do I move to a bigger or smaller plan?
