The hosted domains feature of a website hosting account indicates the amount of registered domain names which you can include in the exact same account. Registering a domain name and hosting it are two completely different services although a lot of people consider them to be the exact same thing. While the registration means that you become the owner of a certain domain, the hosting element is what really allows you to have a site because this is where your data and e-mails will be. Since these are 2 separate services, it is possible to register a new domain with one company and host it with another by modifying its name servers (DNS) - the domain address shall work in the exact same way just as if it was registered and hosted with the exact same company. Additionally, it is important to know that changing the hosting means pointing the domain to a different company and not transferring it.

Hosted Domains in Web Hosting

The web hosting solutions that we offer permit you to host a different number of domains. That way, you can select what plan to acquire and how much to pay according to your needs. If you choose to host more domains at some point than the number the current plan permits you to, you can quickly upgrade the entire plan or even keep the same one and only add more slots for hosted domains. If you decide to employ the registration services of another company, you'll be able to see the name servers you have to set for your domains so as to point them to our cloud platform in the Hosted Domains area of the CP on our end. If you want to have everything in one place, however, there is no limit for the number of domain names which you can register/transfer as part of your account regardless of the hosting plan you have selected. Then you can decide if you'll host them or you will forward them to other existing domains.

Hosted Domains in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you purchase a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, you'll be able to host as many domain addresses as you would like regardless of whether you register them here or you already own them through a different company. We have decided not to restrict this feature because the semi-dedicated plans are very powerful and the load they are able to handle is fairly high, therefore it wouldn't make sense to be able to host a limited number of domains. The accounts are controlled via the Hepsia Control Panel, which will give you total control over your hosted domains. You can add a new domain name with a couple of clicks and everything is done easily and intuitively, as opposed to rival Control Panels where you might even have to switch between different accounts to control a couple of domains. In the event you register a new domain address on our end, it will be hosted automatically in your semi-dedicated account.

Hosted Domains in VPS Servers

If you buy a VPS server plan through our company, you're able to host as many domain addresses as you wish. You'll have your own server, so it is up to you how you will use its resources. You can register new domain names through the billing account of your VPS or add domains which you have already registered with a different company. Because we offer 3 hosting Control Panels for the servers, you are going to have different alternatives for the hosting part - with Hepsia, a freshly registered domain is hosted automatically on the server and you will manage all hosted domains in one place (i.e. there aren't any main and add-on domains), while with cPanel you can create a separate account for each and every domain name which you want to host on the server. The abovementioned option is handy if you want to provide access to your domains to other people.
