Default quick add-on domain question
when you make a new add-on domain, does it take the same amount of time to propagate as your main domain did?

This all goes off of the domain itself. If the DNS is not pointed to our servers then it will take time for propagation.

This is all due to root servers updating across the world.

ok, just to make sure i have this right,

all you have to do for an add-on domain is just create it in the cpanel correct? then its just the waiting game?

or are there other steps to take that are not listed on the add-on domain page?

  1. Buy domain.
  2. Change nameservers for the domain to those given to you by HG.
  3. Create Add On Domain in cPanel.
As far as I know that is it. This order certainly worked for the 11 that I have at present.
