The hosted domains feature of a website hosting account denotes the amount of registered domain names which you can add within the same account. Registering a domain and hosting it are two completely different services even though many people consider them to be the same thing. While the registration signifies that you become the owner of a specific domain, the hosting part is what in fact enables you to have a website as this is where your data and email messages will be. Since these are 2 different services, it is possible to register a new domain address with one company and host it with another by changing its name servers (DNS) - the domain name will work in the exact same way as if it was registered and hosted with the same company. It is also extremely important to know that changing the hosting means directing the domain name to an alternative company and not transferring it.

Hosted Domains in Shared Website Hosting

One of the primary differences between our shared website hosting solutions is the amount of domain addresses which you can host in one account. Owning more domain addresses with active sites for them usually means employing additional server resources, therefore, the more domains you want to host, the more expensive the plan. This way, we give you the option to pick a more affordable plan if you want to have just one or a couple of sites. In the same time, you are able to upgrade your plan or keep the current one and only add extra slots for hosting more domain addresses in your existing account, so you'll not be limited by this feature. No matter how many domains you host, there's no limit how many domains you can register in your account and it's up to you if you'll also host them or you'll direct them to already existing domains via the parking feature.

Hosted Domains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you purchase a semi-dedicated server plan through our company, you will be able to host as many domain addresses as you would like regardless of whether you register them here or you already own them through a different company. We've decided not to limit this feature as the semi-dedicated plans are quite powerful and the load they are able to handle is quite high, therefore it wouldn't add up to be able to host a limited number of domains. The accounts are managed via the Hepsia CP, that will give you full control over your hosted domains. You can add a new domain name with a couple of mouse clicks and everything is done very easily and intuitively, as opposed to alternative Control Panels where you might even have to switch between different accounts to handle a couple of domains. In the event you register a new domain name on our end, it will be hosted automatically in your semi-dedicated account.

Hosted Domains in VPS

Our Linux VPS packages can be used to host unrestricted number of domains regardless of the hosting CP that you pick during the ordering process. You are going to have plenty of system resources to use, so you can decide how many domains will use them. If you get the VPS with DirectAdmin or cPanel, you will be able to create an individual hosting account for every domain address and we do not have a limit for the number of accounts that you can create. If you choose our Hepsia Control Panel, all domains shall be controlled from a single account i.e. there will not be a main domain name and add-on domains like with the other Control Panels. The second alternative may be more convenient if you do not need to give access to a particular domain to other people and you do not want to switch between accounts to manage the domain names that you host on the server. Additionally, any new domain address that you register using Hepsia is going to be hosted automatically on the server without doing anything manually afterwards.
