Domain
pointing takes domain parking
another step further by allowing
multiple domains which resolve to
different index pages or directories on
the same hosting account. Domain
pointing would come into play if one
wanted to maintain TWO distinctly
different web sites while paying and
maintaining only one hosting account (aka
a "twofer" deal).
Example:
www.apples.com
->
http://apples.com/index.html
www.oranges.com
->
http://apples.com/oranges/index.html
With
domain pointing, the additional domain
name(s) point to a subdirectory on the
account, however this is invisible to
visitors (www.apples.com/oranges is
recognized and treated as the root
directory of www.oranges.com in the same
way as www.apples.com/oranges is
recognized and handled as
oranges.apples.com if you were to make
it a subdomain).
Most of
our plans provide domain pointers for
free. If you require additional domain
pointers, refer to the addons page for
pricing schedule.
