There are 2 services that you’ll need for a functioning web site - a domain and a website hosting plan for it. Any time you type the domain address in your browser, you see the content that’s uploaded within the web hosting account, but if that domain name is not linked to such an account or to an email service, it's parked. Put simply, the domain address is registered and you are its owner, but it lacks content of its own. Rather, it can open either a pre-made “Under Construction / For Sale” Internet page from the registrar company, or it can be forwarded to some other URL of your choice. The main advantage of parking a domain name is that you can keep it and make sure that no one else will take it. In the meantime, it won't occupy a slot for a hosted domain name in your account. You may also park domain names if you have a .com, for example, and you register domain addresses with other extensions such as .net, .org or country-code ones to forward them to the main web site as a way to protect a brand name.

Parked Domains in Cloud Hosting

If you have a cloud hosting with us, you will be able to park any of your domains easily. The function is offered for the domain names registered with our company, but not for the ones that are only hosted here and pointed from some other company, since a domain name can be parked only through its registrar. Our Domain Manager instrument will enable you to choose from a variety of templates and you are going to be able to add custom text to any of them. Forwarding a domain address to another URL is as easy as just typing the Internet address and saving it. If you would like to host any of your parked domain addresses, it takes just a mouse 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 required DNS records, etc. For easier management, you're going to be able to filter the domains registered inside the account by their status - parked or hosted.
