The hosted domains feature of a hosting account indicates the amount of registered domain names which you could add in the very same account. Registering a domain and hosting it are two different services even though many people consider them to be the very same thing. While the registration means that you become the owner of a given domain, the hosting aspect is what in fact enables you to have a site considering that this is where your data and e-mails will be. Since these are 2 independent services, you can register a new domain with one company and host it with another one by changing its name servers (DNS) - the domain name is going to work in the exact same way just as if it was registered and hosted using the same company. It's also very important to know that changing the hosting means pointing the domain name to a different company and not transferring it.
Hosted Domains in Hosting
Our hosting plans come with a different number of domain addresses you can host in one account. If you want to have one or a few web sites, you do not need a lot of system resources, so you do not need to pay for a very powerful plan and you can select a lower-end one. If you want to have more sites in the future, you can always upgrade your entire package or only the hosted domains feature of your current package - it's going to take only a couple of clicks in your hosting CP to accomplish this. There is no limit how many domain names you can register via our company and by selecting the most suitable plan, you can decide how many of them you'll actually host. If you have domain names which are registered through a different provider, you'll be able to host them with us as well and employ our web and e-mail hosting services for them.
Hosted Domains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you buy a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, you'll be able to host as many domain addresses as you want no matter if you register them here or you already own them through a different company. We've decided not to restrict this feature since the semi-dedicated plans are quite powerful and the load they are able to handle is pretty high, therefore it would not sound right to be able to host a restricted amount of domain addresses. The accounts are handled via the Hepsia CP, which will give you complete control over your hosted domains. You can add a new domain name with a few clicks and everything is done quickly and intuitively, in contrast to alternative Control Panels where you may even have to switch between separate accounts to control a couple of domains. If you register a new domain name on our end, it'll be hosted automatically in your semi-dedicated account.
Hosted Domains in VPS
Our Linux VPS can be used to host unrestricted number of domains regardless of the hosting CP that you choose during the ordering process. You'll have an abundance of resources to use, so you can decide how many domains are going to use them. If you get the VPS with DirectAdmin or cPanel, you will be able to create an independent hosting account for every domain name and we do not have a limit for the number of accounts that you can create. If you pick our Hepsia Control Panel, all domain addresses are going to be controlled using one account i.e. there will not be a main domain name and add-on domains as with the other Control Panels. The second alternative may be more convenient if you don't need to grant access to a certain domain to other people and you do not want to switch between accounts to manage the domain addresses that you host on the server. Additionally, any new domain which you register via Hepsia is going to be hosted automatically on the server without you having to do anything manually afterward.
