Registering a domain name and hosting one is commonly mistaken by a lot of people to be the same thing. These are actually 2 different services - the domain address registration is the actual name and nothing more, while the hosted domains feature refers to the number of already registered domain names you can accommodate in the same web hosting account and have site data and email messages for them. Your sites will function in exactly the same way no matter if the domain names are registered and hosted at the same place or are registered with company A and pointed to company B. Simply registering a domain name without hosting it will give you ownership, but will not enable you to have a website until you host this domain in some account so that records for it are set up and it starts opening the data from that account.

Hosted Domains in Website Hosting

The website hosting packages that we provide permit you to host a different amount of domain names. That way, you can choose what package to acquire and how much to pay according to your needs. If you decide to host more domain addresses in the future than the amount the current package enables you to, you can quickly upgrade your entire package or even keep the same one and only add more slots for hosted domain names. If you want to employ the registration services of some other company, you will be able to see the name servers you have to set for your domains so that you can point them to our cloud platform in the Hosted Domains section of the CP on our end. If you prefer to have everything in one spot, however, there is no limit on the number of domain addresses which you can register/transfer as part of your account regardless of the hosting plan you have chosen. Then you can decide if you'll host any of them or you will direct them to other existing domains.

Hosted Domains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Due to the fact that our Linux semi-dedicated plans are very powerful, we have decided not to set any limit on the amount of the domain addresses you can host if you get such a plan. This feature is unlimited by default, and not on demand or after some upgrade, so it's your decision how many domains you'll add and how you will employ the system resources of your semi-dedicated hosting account. The plans are managed using our custom Hepsia website hosting CP which will allow you to see and manage all hosted domain names in one location, eliminating the need to go through different accounts as you'll need to do with other website hosting Control Panels. Additionally, there is no restriction how many domains you'll be able to register or transfer and it's up to you how many of them you are going to host within the account.

Hosted Domains in VPS Servers

If you purchase a VPS server package from our company, you can host as many domain addresses as you wish. You will have your own server, therefore it's your choice how you will utilize its system resources. You'll be able to register new domain addresses via the billing account of your VPS or add domains that you have already registered with another company. Because we offer you 3 web hosting Control Panels for the servers, you will have different alternatives for the hosting part - with Hepsia, a newly registered domain is hosted automatically on the server and you are going to handle all hosted domains from a single location (i.e. there are no main and add-on domains), while with DirectAdmin and cPanel you can create a separate account for each and every domain that you want to host on the server. The aforementioned option is handy if you would like to allow access to the domains to other people.
