cPanel Domains

Updated: November 16, 2020


A detailed description and explanation of cPanel Domain functions.


  • Site Publisher

      Site Publisher allows you to quickly create a website from a set of available templates. This allows visitors to see some basic information while you continue to develop your website. You can have a website up and running in no time with this feature.

  • Domain Names

      Modify and manage images that are saved to your account. Use this interface to manage your domains. You could quickly add a domain name to your account with a few simple steps.

  • Addon Domains

      An addon domain is an additional domain that the system stores as a subdomain of your main site. Use addon domains to host additional domains on your account. You could add as many domain names that your web hosting plan allows. Not sure how many Addon Domains are allowed with your web hosting plan ? Simply log in cPanel and the right side panel will display Addin Domains allocation.

  • Sub Domains

      A subdomain is a sub-section of your website that can exist as a new website without a new domain name. Use subdomains to create easy-to-remember URLs for different content areas of your site. For example, you can create a subdomain for your blog that is accessible through blog.mysite.com and wwww.mysite.com/blog. You could also manage your subdomains here.

  • Aliases

      Domain aliases make your website available from another domain name. For example, you can make www.example.net and www.example.org show content from www.example.com Easy and fast to create.

  • Redirects

      A redirect allows you to make one domain name redirect to another domain name, either for a website or a specific web page. For example, create a redirect so that www.mysite.com automatically redirects users to www.mysite.net. You could choose to redirect to any domain name.

  • Zone Editor

      DNS converts domain names into computer-readable IP addresses. DNS zone files configure domain names to the correct IP addresses. This feature allows you to create and edit these zone files.
