A parked domain name is one which is taken, yet it is not associated with another service - web or email hosting. Essentially, this type of domain won't load any actual content when you type it in a browser, but no one else can take it as you've already registered it and you are its owner. The benefit of obtaining a domain and parking it afterwards is the fact that you’ll be able to keep it and not worry that somebody else could possibly register it in the meantime if, for example, the site for it is not ready yet. You could set a temporary Under Construction webpage for a parked domain while you are working on your web site, or direct it to some other web address - temporarily or permanently. The second option can be used if you have already registered domain.com, for instance, and you get domain.net and domain.org, so that you can protect a brand name or a trademark. In this case, the .net and .org domain names can be parked and directed to the .com since you don't need different sites for them.
Parked Domains in Web Hosting
With each and every web hosting package which we offer you can park as many domain names as you would like and in contrast to other companies, we do not have any fees for that. Of course, you can do this only for domains which are registered through our company as parking a domain is possible only through the registrar, but not through the host unless you have both services with the same company. We have a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can conveniently park and un-park domains, choose one of the templates we provide and add custom text to it, or forward a domain to a URL of your preference. If you host a parked domain address, our system will modify its name servers and set up a folder in the File Manager automatically. You can also set filters to check out only the parked or only the hosted domain addresses, that will allow you to manage them really easy.
Parked Domains in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you acquire a semi-dedicated server plan from our company, you can register and park as many domain addresses as you would like. Different to other providers, we will not charge you an additional fee for this feature. You'll be able to park a domain address with just two clicks using the Domain Manager tool, which you can access through the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. In case you decide to use a template, you will have a few different ones to select from and you'll be able to add custom text to any of them. The feature-rich Domain Manager allows you to set filters to see only the hosted or only the parked domains within your account. Using the same tool, you can also un-park a domain and host it in your account with only a click. Our system will modify the name servers of the domain name and will create its folder in the File Manager section, and the needed DNS records for it, automatically.
