Most Web hosting providers today allow you to add multiple websites to your hosting account, But before you can add any additional sites to your hosting account you need to add your new domains to your webhosting,
This post will show you how you can easily add a new domain name in Cpanel.
Before you can add a Domain name in your Cpanel or web hosting account you need to make sure you have changed the name servers for the domain name. Otherwise your web host will not be able to recognize or find the domain name your trying to add, So basically this step will not work if you haven’t already changed your Name Servers.
If your not sure how to change name servers read my article on “How To Change Name Servers“.
The first step is to log into your Cpanel. If your not familiar with logging into Cpanel I have a short tutorial you can read titled “How To Easily Log Into Cpanel”
Once your into your Cpanel, look for the icon that has the “Addon Domains” text under it. It should look something like the icon in the screen shot below.
Click on the “Addon Domains” Icon to proceed.
In the next screen, you’ll see a form where you need to insert the details for your new domain name, ftp user name the rootfolder for your new site
Type in your new domain name, But leave out the “www.” then just left click with your mouse anywhere outside of the text box, the subdomain/ftpUsername, and Document root files text box’s should automatically be filled in for you.
Make sure you create a strong Password with upper and lower case letters with numbers and symbols.
If the details for your sub domain and root folders don’t automatically update, you may have to fill in the details yourself.
Make sure your FTP Username is something you associate with the corresponding website, and folder or directory you create can be easily associated with that particular site, Make sure you put the folder inside your public_html file. It will look something like this… “public_html/yourwebsite.com“.
As you fill in the fields correctly, you will see a green tick show up next to them.
After you have filled in all of the necessary information correctly, simply click on the “Add Domain” button, and that’s all there is to it.
The next screen you will see will simply be asking if you want to manage the files for your domain name or to go back to your Cpanel, You probably won’t need to do anything else at this stage so unless you need to go back into your main Cpanel area you can simply close this screen.
