If you'd like to register a domain name to make sure that nobody else will take it, but you haven't built the web site for it yet, you could park it. It's a feature that registrar companies offer whenever a domain is not connected to any web or e-mail hosting service. In this way, you can protect a brand name, for example, and you will own the domain address in question although it will not load any content. If you want, you can choose some standard template that the registrar provides, such as For Sale or Under Construction, alternatively you can forward the domain name to a new web address. The second option is very useful if you own a number of domain names, but you want all of them to open the same website. As an illustration, you may register domain.net and domain.org, then park them and forward them to domain.com. In this example, you're going to need hosting for the third domain only and the traffic to the other ones will be redirected to it.

Parked Domains in Shared Web Hosting

With each and every shared web hosting package that we offer you’re able to park as many domains as you wish and unlike other companies, we don't have any fees for that. Needless to say, you can do this exclusively for domains that are registered through us since parking a domain is possible only through the registrar, and not through the host unless you have both services with the exact same company. We've got a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can quickly park and un-park domain addresses, choose one of the templates we offer and add custom text to it, or forward a domain name to a URL of your preference. If you host a parked domain name, our system will change its name servers and set up a folder in the File Manager automatically. Also you can set filters to check out only the parked or only the hosted domains, that will enable you to manage them easy and fast.
