If you want to make a web site, you need two things - a domain name and a website hosting plan for it. The domain registration is the actual web address which you type in a browser to access a site, while the hosting space is where your website files is going to be. These are 2 very closely connected, yet separate services, although many people think that registering the domain name is enough. Similar to the disk space and the monthly traffic features that a given website hosting plan offers, there are a certain number of registered domains which you can add as hosted which means that you can have the web content for them in some account even when the domains are actually registered via a different provider. In technical terms, it does not matter if a domain is registered and hosted with the same company or is registered with one company and pointed to another - in either case your websites will operate in exactly the same way.
Hosted Domains in Shared Web Hosting
One of the differences between our shared web hosting plans is the number of domain names that you can host in one account. Possessing more domain names with functioning web sites for them usually means using more server system resources, therefore, the more domain names you want to host, the more expensive the package. This way, we provide you with the option to pick a cheaper plan if you want to have just one or a couple of websites. In the same time, you’re able to upgrade the package or keep the current one and only add extra slots for hosting more domains as part of your existing account, so you will never be limited by this feature. Irrespective of how many domains you host, there is no limit how many domains you can register in your account and it's your choice if you will also host them or you will forward them to already existing domains through the parking function.
