A parked domain is one that's taken, yet it is not linked to some other service - web or e mail hosting. In other words, such a domain address won't load any actual content when you type it within an Internet browser, but no one else can take it as you have already registered it and you are its owner. The best thing about obtaining a domain name and parking it afterwards is that you will be able to keep it and not worry that somebody else might register it meanwhile if, for instance, the website for it is not ready yet. You may create a short-term Under Construction page for a parked domain name while you are working on your website, or forward it to another web address - temporarily or permanently. The second option can be used 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 addresses can be parked and directed to the .com since you do not need different sites for them.
Parked Domains in Hosting
With each and every hosting plan we offer you’ll be able to park as many domain addresses as you want and unlike other companies, we don't have any fees for that. Of course, this can be done only for domain names that are registered through our company because parking a domain is possible only with the registrar, and not through the host unless you have the two services with the same company. We have a feature-rich Domain Manager tool where you can easily park and un-park domains, pick one of the templates that we provide and add custom text to it, or forward a domain to a URL of your choice. If you host a parked domain, 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, that will enable you to manage them easy and fast.
