An add-on domain in cPanel allows you to host multiple websites on a single hosting account, each with its own unique domain name. Here's how to create an add-on domain in cPanel:
- Log in to your cPanel account.
- In the "Domains" section, click on the "Addon Domains" icon.
- In the "Create an Addon Domain" section, fill in the following information:
- New Domain Name: Enter the new domain name you want to add to your account.
- Subdomain/FTP username: cPanel will automatically create a subdomain and FTP username for the new domain.
- Document Root: This is the directory where the files for the new domain will be stored. It will automatically be filled in based on the domain name you entered.
- Click "Add Domain" to create the new add-on domain.
- Once the domain is added, you will be prompted to create an FTP account for the new domain.
- You can also add DNS record for your new domain name in cPanel.
It's important to keep in mind that you will need to have the domain name registered and pointed to your hosting account DNS server.
It's worth noting that some hosting providers have different ways to add add-on domains, so if you are unable to find this feature in cPanel, you should check your hosting provider's documentation or contact their support team.
