Parked Domains & Addon Domains in CPanel what r these for
is it to park the page ?
anyways parking it specifically what does it mean

 

[netzilla]

Parked domains are additional domains that you can have pointing to your website. An add on domain is a domain that points to a sub directory within your account which makes it appear it has seperate hosting.

I cant access my cpanel right now because of my work proxy but....i believe when you add the domain on the form there is a place where it asks for a name or user..that is where you need to supply the directory name and it should redirect to there. Sorry wish I could be more help.

Make sure that domain's name servers are pointing to the same name servers your original website is.

let me try to explain it easier.
1.when you addning domain to PARK - it will show same website whatever your main domain is showing. in other words this is POINTING into main website.if you park example1.com on example.com, when you type in your internet browser's bar example1.com you will see example.com's website
2 when you add on domain it is mean that on same hosting you can have 2 different websites. adding domain automatically creating a new folder in your file manager, where you will create a new website. if your main domain is example.com and you will add on domain example1.com, when you will type in internet browser's address bar example1.com you will see completly different page, than whatever is on example.com
hope this helps.
