Adding Domain Aliases

In order to point additional domain names to your website hosted on either a Linux or a Windows Hosting package, follow the process mentioned below:

  1. Login to your Control Panel, Search for the domain name for which you have purchased this Hosting Order and go to the Order Information view. 1

  2. Click the Domain Aliases link.

  3. Enter up to 10 additional domain names as aliases for your website, and click the Update Domain Aliases button.

Note
  • This feature is referred as Parked Domain on cPanel Linux Hosting.

  • For each Domain Alias that you submit, you would need to point this aliased domain name to your primary domain name (for which you have bought Hosting).

    This can be accomplished by either one of these ways:

    1. Option 1:

      On the existing Name Servers of the Domain Alias, create 2 Address Records (A Records) pointing to your primary domain name. The Address Records can be viewed by clicking the Name Server Details link within the Order Details view page of the Web Hosting Order. Notice the first 2 Address Records and request your current DNS Service Provider to replicate them for your alias domain name.

    2. Option 2:

      If you have registered the alias domain name through Whois.com Pte Ltd and your current DNS Service Provider does not allow you to create these Records, then you can follow the process listed below:

      1. Search for the domain name for which you have purchased the Web Hosting package and go to the Order Details view. 2

      2. Click the Name Server Details link and note the first 2 Address Records.

      3. Replicate these Address Records for the alias domain name that you wish to add to your Web Hosting Order, from within the DNS Management Console of the alias domain name. 3

Now, the website that you have created can be seen on all the domain names that you have set as aliases.
