The hosted domains feature of a hosting account denotes the amount of registered domains that one can add within the same account. Registering a domain and hosting it are 2 different services although a lot of people consider them to be the same thing. While the registration signifies that you become the owner of a given domain, the hosting element is what actually enables you to have a site considering that this is where your data and emails will be. Since these are two different services, you can register a new domain address with one company and host it with another by modifying its name servers (DNS) - the domain address is going to work in the exact same way as if it was registered and hosted using the same company. Also, it is very important to know that changing the hosting means pointing the domain address to a different company and not transferring it.

Hosted Domains in Website Hosting

The website hosting solutions we provide permit you to host a different number of domains. That way, you can select what plan to get and how much to spend in accordance with your requirements. If you choose to host more domain addresses later on than the number the current package enables you to, you can easily upgrade the whole plan or even keep the same one and only add more slots for hosted domains. If you want to use the registration services of another company, you'll be able to see the name servers you need to set for your domains so as to point them to our cloud platform in the Hosted Domains section of the CP on our end. If you prefer to have everything in 1 spot, however, there's no limit for the number of domain names that you can register/transfer within your account no matter the hosting package you have chosen. Then you can decide if you'll host any of them or you will forward them to other existing domains.
