A parked domain address is one that's taken, however it's not associated with some other service - web or e mail hosting. To put it differently, this type of domain name will not open any actual content if you type it inside a browser, but no one else can take it as you've already registered it and you are its owner. The advantage of acquiring a domain name and parking it afterwards is that you will be able to keep it and not worry that someone else may register it in the meantime if, for example, the website for it is not ready yet. You are able to set a short-term Under Construction webpage for a parked Internet domain while you are working on the web site, or forward it to some other web address - temporarily or permanently. The second option can be employed if you have already registered domain.com, for example, and you obtain domain.net and domain.org, so that you can protect a brand name or a trademark. In this situation, the .net and .org domain names can be parked and forwarded to the .com as you do not need separate sites for them.

Parked Domains in Web Hosting

With each and every web hosting plan that we offer you can park as many domain addresses as you wish and unlike other companies, we don't have any fees for that. Naturally, this can be done just for domains that are registered through our company because parking a domain is possible only with the registrar, but not through the host unless you have the two services with only one company. We have got a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can effortlessly park and un-park domains, pick one of the templates that we provide and add custom text to it, or forward a domain address to a URL of your preference. If you host a parked domain address, our system will change its name servers and set up a folder in the File Manager automatically. Additionally you can set filters to check out only the parked or only the hosted domain addresses, which will permit you to handle them really easy.
