Smile Just became your costumer..

Hi, after having problems with my current host I searched for a better one and found you guys.

I've changed my dns settings on my old domain and have registered another one using my dns given by you. I was wondering how can I use both domains with one hosting plan? The settings are still being resolved, but I would like some help before I start building. I was also wondering if having the 2 domains wouldnt cause some conflict, maybe someone can explain how to avoid it. Thanks in advanced.

If you want them to show the same content, you use a parked domain. For different content, use an addon domain. Both options are available in cPanel, which you can access using the logon information in your welcome email.

Hi Huracan!
Welcome to the HostGator Hosting Family!
It depends on what plan you are on. If you are on the Baby or Swamp package you will be able to do this. First you would go into your cpanel, then click on Addon Domains. type in the addon domain you want to add. example hostgator.com, create a login (for ftp purposes) and a password. Then create a name for the addon domain. This folder will be created under public_html or www/ . Everything you want to be shown on the addon domain website needs to be uploaded there.
If you have anymore questions feel free to ask! =)
