How to Add another Domain to your Hosting Account

Hosting multiple websites on a single hosting account is always preferred if you wish to have a central control panel for all your websites… In some cases, especially websites with features that require a dedicated hosting account, then multiple domains hosted on a single account is not a good idea…

If your hosting account allows for multiple or unlimited domains and you want to add another domain on top of your main domain, here’s how to do it…

First, set the name servers of the domain you wish to add. You can get the name servers from your hosting account somewhere on the lower left…

After you’ve set the name servers, go back to your hosting account and click “add-on domains” in the domains section, and go through the process of filling out the form to add your domain…

The image on the left side of this article should more or less summarize how to fill how the add-on domain page of your hosting account…

    You are great , Cirilo. I hope your BiG Contribution here will help me make HTA Partnership work. I have been working with you in setting up HTA and the Opt-ins is still not working. Pershaps, you can have this problem stated clearer here ..How TO ENSURE YOUR OPT-IN ACCOUNT PROPERLY SET UP FOR YOUR LANDING PAGE.. Thank you

    1. Hi Chak,

      You simply need to make sure you paste the complete html code of your webform in your landing page where it asks for your AR HTML code.

      Also, only Get Response is best optmized for the HTA system.

      Thanks.

    I’m having troubles adding a new domain to my Hostgator account. I’ve done everything that’s shown in this video but Hostgator tells me I need to actually upload ‘files’ for my website. But I don’t have any files in my computer, the website I’m trying to add is pre-made, ready to go website. Do you have a video where you show how to upload the files of pre-made website?

    1. Hi Martina,

      I’m afraid I don’t have that video yet, but you can easily upload website files or templates using a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) such as Filezilla which is free to download – just google it.

      If you need dedicated help with uploading your pre made website, you can send me an email at cvcena@freewebcoach.org . Please do provide details of your premade website, so I’d know what the site is all about…

      Thanks.

      Cirilo
