Unlimited Domains - yes i searched :)

[abercrombie]

here's a question. i have a swamp account www.account.com with unlimited domains. i did see the addon feature in the control panel. i'm curious about the folder structure. if I added "another_domain", would the folder structure be:

myaccount/public_html/another_domain

(or) will it have it's own public_html

myaccount/another_domain/public_html

i see the benefits of doing this and saving lots of bucks. but what are the drawbacks? can i "swamp" the server if my sites becomes too popular and slow everybody down? thanks in advance.

It will be a subdirectory of the main account's public_html.

i.e. myaccount/public_html/another_domain.

But the name of the subdirectory itself is of your own choosing, entered at the time of creation.

Anyone going to "www.another_domain.com" will be pointed transparently to that directory.

I have a number of addons, and picked my own directory names rather than the ones offered by default.

thanks! also, will the CPanel also allow me to manage email address forwarding for the "another_domain" or is it just for the primary account.

You have full control of email forwarding for any domain you add, or subdomain you create. You effectively have a "mail server" for every one of them.

thanks for the quick answers!

You're welcome.

I'm glad I can finally start answering others' questions, rather than doing nothing but asking questions of my own.

Just to clarify RainbowViper's excellent answer.
