They permit you to possess more than one independent web site sharing the resources of your hosting account. You&#8217;ll host multiple domains or multiple web sites on one account that are essentially setup as sub domains on the main domain however the domains you add as an addon domain gets parked on top of the subdomain. You&#8217;ll see the web site of the sub domain after you type your addon domain within the browser by the URL never changes because it continues with add-on domain within the browser.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Parked Domain:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You can have multiple domain names referring to your web site. This can be an great way to increase your on-line visibility. Parked domain on main domain shows web site of the main domain. Similarly parked domain on the subdomain would show web site of the subdomain. A domain that is parked on the subdomain is termed add-on domain. Apache configuration has to understand what directory to call when someone opens a specific web site within the browser and in the case of addon domains, it&#8217;ll load the subdomain. Your addon domain is included as an alias for that subdomain. From a user perspective, an addon domain functions rather like the other domain. You&#8217;ll be able to register and set up an addon domain under your existing web hosting account.<\/p>\n<p>So when your visitors type<\/p>\n<pre>http:\/\/www.yourdomain.com<\/pre>\n<p>in their browser, they will be transported to the new site. The difference between a parked domain and an addon domain from a web user\u2019s perspective is that with a parked domain the URL in the address bar will change to the physical location of the page as the page loads. For example, if you type<\/p>\n<pre>http:\/\/www.abc.com<\/pre>\n<p>that domain won\u2019t remain in the browser address bar but will change to<\/p>\n<pre>http:\/\/www.domain.com\/abc\/index.html<\/pre>\n<p>as soon as the page is displayed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Difference between Addon domain &amp; Parked domain Addon Domain: Addon domains are often added to your hosting account as an extra feature.
