If you want to register a domain name to make sure that no one else will take it, however, you have not built the website for it yet, you may park it. That is a feature that registrar companies offer whenever a domain name isn't connected to any web or e-mail hosting service. That way, you are able to protect a brand name, for example, and you will own the domain address in question even though it will not open any content. If you wish, you may choose some default template that the registrar offers, such as For Sale or Under Construction, or you can direct the domain name to a new web address. The second option is very helpful if you own a few domains, but you want all of them to open the same site. As an illustration, you can register domain.net and domain.org, then park them and direct them to domain.com. In this example, you will need hosting for the third domain address only and the traffic to the other ones is going to be redirected to it.
Parked Domains in Website Hosting
With each and every website hosting package we offer you are able to park as many domains as you wish and unlike other companies, we do not have any fees for that. Of course, this can be done only for domain names that are registered through our company because parking a domain is possible only through the registrar, and not through the host unless you have the two services with just one company. We have got a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can effortlessly park and un-park domain names, choose one of the templates that we offer and add custom text to it, or direct a domain address to a URL of your preference. If you host a parked domain address, our system will modify its name servers and create a folder in the File Manager automatically. Additionally you can set filters to check out only the parked or only the hosted domain names, which will enable you to control them fast and easy.
