If you want to register a domain name to ensure that nobody else is going to take it, but you haven't developed the website for it yet, you can park it. This is a service that registrar companies provide if a domain is not linked to any web or e-mail hosting service. This way, you'll be able to protect a brand name, for example, and you'll own the domain name in question although it won't load any content. If you wish, you can choose some standard template that the registrar provides, such as For Sale or Under Construction, or you can direct the domain to another web address. The second option is very useful if you own a number of domains, but you want every one of them to open the same website. For example, you can register domain.net and domain.org, then park them and forward them to domain.com. In this example, you are going to need hosting for the third domain only and the traffic to the other ones will be redirected to it.

Parked Domains in Cloud Website Hosting

With each and every cloud website hosting package which we offer you can park as many domains as you want and unlike other companies, we don't have any fees for that. Needless to say, this can be done only for domain addresses which are registered through us because parking a domain is possible only with the registrar, and not through the host unless you have the two services with the same company. We've got a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can conveniently park and un-park domains, pick one of the templates that we offer and add custom text to it, or forward a domain name to a URL of your choice. If you host a parked domain name, our system will change its name servers and create a folder in the File Manager automatically. Also you can set filters and see only the parked or only the hosted domain addresses, which will enable you to handle them quick and simple.
