If you'd like to register a domain to ensure that no one else is going to take it, however, you have not built the site for it yet, you can park it. It's a service that registrar companies provide if a domain is not connected to any web or email hosting service. This way, you'll be able to protect a brand name, for instance, and you will own the domain name in question although it won't open any content. If you would like, you can choose some standard template that the registrar provides, like For Sale or Under Construction, or you can forward the domain to a different web address. Your second option is very useful if you own a number of domains, but you want every one of them to open the same site. As an illustration, you can register domain.net and domain.org, then park them and forward them to domain.com. In this example, you will need hosting for the third domain only and the traffic to the other ones will be redirected to it.
Parked Domains in Hosting
With each and every hosting plan that we offer you will be able to park as many domain names as you wish and in contrast to other companies, we do not have any service fees for that. Needless to say, this can be done just for domain addresses that are registered through us since parking a domain is possible only through the registrar, but not through the host unless you have both services with the same company. We have got a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can easily park and un-park domains, pick one of the templates we offer and add custom text to it, or direct a domain to a URL of your choice. If you host a parked domain, our system will modify its name servers and set up a folder in the File Manager automatically. You can also set filters and see only the parked or only the hosted domain addresses, which will enable you to handle them quick and simple.
