A parked domain name is one that's taken, but it's not connected to any other service - web or e mail hosting. To put it differently, this kind of domain name will not load any real content in case you type it inside an Internet browser, but nobody can take it as you've already registered it and you are its owner. The main advantage of acquiring a domain and parking it afterwards is the fact that you’re able to keep it and not worry that someone else may register it in the meantime if, for example, the site for it is not ready yet. You could set a short-term Under Construction page for a parked Internet domain while you are working on your site, or direct it to another web address - temporarily or permanently. The second option can be used if you have already registered domain.com, for example, and you acquire domain.net and domain.org, so that you can protect a brand name or a trademark. In such a case, the .net and .org domains can be parked and directed to the .com as you do not need separate sites for them.

Parked Domains in Website Hosting

If you have a website hosting with our company, you will be able to park all of your domains effortlessly. The feature is available for the domains registered with us, and not for the ones which are only hosted here and pointed from some other company, as a domain address can be parked only through its registrar. Our Domain Manager instrument will permit you to pick from a variety of templates and you will be able to add your own text to any of them. Redirecting a domain name to an alternative URL is as easy as only typing the Internet address and saving it. If you would like to host any of your parked domains, it takes simply a click to do it and our system is going to do the rest - changing the name servers, creating a domain folder in your account, creating the necessary DNS records, etc. For easier management, you're going to be able to filter the domain names registered within the account by their status - parked or hosted.
