eaino Posted March 25, 2003 Posted March 25, 2003 I have registered one domain eg www.****, i have then registered another domain, eg www.mydomain2.com , is it possible to use the same webhosting space to host both domains??? Cheers Quote
bethohio3 Posted March 25, 2003 Posted March 25, 2003 Common question If the two domains are exactly the same, and you want them to resolve to the same website, that is possible. Enter a help ticket and some magic wonderful guru will take care of it. If the two domains are different, they need separate accounts. They cannot share one of the regular accounts. If you have multiple domains, you can look into a reseller account. --Beth Quote
eaino Posted March 25, 2003 Author Posted March 25, 2003 Nice one Beth, so if i host a subdomain could i point my second main domain to that subdomain. Am i making sense?? Quote
Junior Posted March 25, 2003 Posted March 25, 2003 if i host a subdomain could i point my second main domain to that subdomain No, individual hosting accounts are for one domain name. You cannot point an additional domain to a sub-domain. For example, you register ****, and it points to ****/index.htm (the default)...you register mydomain2.htm, and point it to ****/mydomain2...that is not allowed. We can park mydomain2.com ON TOP of ****, and both resolve to the same index.htm page. Quote
eaino Posted March 25, 2003 Author Posted March 25, 2003 Ok, sounds good. I assume i have to log a ticket to get this done. Just out of interest, why is it not allowed to direct a domain to a subdomain? Cheers, Eain Quote
TCH-JimE Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 What happened if someone did this using webfowarding supplied by some dot.com companies out there? Would it be possible to pay for an upgrade to allow a second different dot.com to share the same space? Just out of curosity for future thoughts Jim Quote
Head Guru Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 They would be in violation of the TOS & AUP. Quote
TCH-JimE Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 Ok. Jim P.S. Don't worry I have not been doing it! Quote
