Parked Domains

What exactly are parked domain names? When are able to they come in real useful? How could you park a domain?

There are two separate services that you’ll need for a working web site - a domain and a hosting plan for it. Any time you type the domain address in your Internet browser, you see the content that’s uploaded in the hosting account, but if that domain address isn't linked to such an account or to an email service, it is parked. To put it differently, the Internet domain is registered and you're its owner, but it doesn't have any content of its own. As a substitute, it can open either a pre-made “Under Construction / For Sale” webpage from the registrar company, or it may be directed to any other URL of your choice. The main advantage of parking a domain address is that you can keep it and be sure that nobody else will take it. In the meantime, it won't take a slot for a hosted Internet domain in your account. You may also park domain names if you have a .com, for instance, and you register domain names with other extensions like .net, .org or country-code ones to direct them to the main web site so as to protect a brand name.

: Parked Domains in Website Hosting

With each and every website hosting plan which we offer you will be able to park as many domain addresses as you would like and unlike other companies, we do not have any service fees for that. Naturally, this can be done exclusively for domain addresses which are registered through our company since parking a domain is possible only through the registrar, and not through the host unless you have the two services with only one company. We've got a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can conveniently park and un-park domains, choose one of the templates we provide and add custom text to it, or forward a domain to a URL of your preference. If you host a parked domain name, our system will change its name servers and set up a folder in the File Manager automatically. You could also set filters to check out only the parked or only the hosted domain names, that will enable you to manage them fast and easy.
