2 Domains for one hosting package

12-2-05, 06:05 PM

i own a domain, and would like to buy a host here, i read i can have more than one domain for my package but, the new domains must be from powweb or can be mine?
an example:
i have the domain www.xxx.com, then i buy a host package in powweb, registering a new domain name www.zzz.com, then, i want to add as a second domain the xxx.com,
its suppossed to be free.
is this ok?

You can have this if you wish, you can have up-to 7 domains on one package.

There are 3 types of domains on the package:

1) The original domain name. (You can only have one of this type!)
2) Serviced domains at $20 per serviced domain. The domain name must already be owned by you. These act like the original domain, including e-mails and DNS management. You can have 3 of this type.
3) Pointed domains which are free. The domain must already be owned by you. You don't get full e-mail service, just receiving. You don't get DNS management either.

Where the domains aren't already owned by you, Powweb's associate will sell one for $15. This is more expensive then others available on the Internet although some prefer having everything together. Many use godaddy.com or registerfly.com as the place they buy domain names for use on Powweb. They are nearly 1/2 the price of Powweb's associate.

If you don't own the domain that you wish to use for the main package domain then that is free if you buy a 1yr or 2yr package.

Are you asking if you can have two separate websites hosted under one package with PowWeb? If so, I would like to better understand this.

I think you can have multiple domain names point to your site for free (assuming you own the domain name).

You can have two separate web sites hosted under one package, with a small amount of effort at writing a .htaccess file. My Hollis Town Band site (linked below) shares a package with one of my other sites. It's very difficult to know that without my telling you.

You can do it automatically (without writing/editing .htaccess) by using this script.

There are other methods, too.
