It allows you to control all the important parts of your website from a single dashboard. One of the most common tasks in cPanel is adding a new domain (website) to your hosting account. This guide will walk you through the process of adding a domain, explain how to manage your files and subdomains, and help you get everything set up smoothly.<\/p><h4>What Is an Addon Domain?<\/h4><p>Before we dive into how to add a domain, let\u2019s first understand what an <strong>Addon Domain<\/strong> is.<\/p><p>An <strong>Addon Domain<\/strong> is simply an additional domain (or website) that you add to your hosting account. It allows you to host more than one website using the same hosting plan. For example, you can have <code>example1.com<\/code> and <code>example2.com<\/code> both hosted on the same account, without needing separate hosting plans.<\/p><p>Let\u2019s go over the simple steps to add a new domain to your cPanel account.<\/p><h4>Ensure Your Domain is Pointing to TheBeeHost Nameservers<\/h4><p>Before you add your domain to cPanel, you need to make sure that your domain is using the correct nameservers provided by <strong>TheBeeHost<\/strong>. This step ensures that your domain will start pointing to new nameservers across the DNS Servers globally.<\/p><ul><li>Log in to your domain registrar account (where you purchased your domain).<\/li><li>Find the <strong>DNS settings<\/strong> or <strong>Nameserver settings<\/strong> for your domain.<\/li><li>Change the nameservers to point to <strong>TheBeeHost<\/strong>. The nameservers are listed below.<\/li><\/ul><p><code>cp1.therightservers.com<\/code><\/p><p><code>cp2.therightservers.com<\/code><\/p><p><code>cp3.therightservers.com<\/code><\/p><p><code>cp4.therightservers.com<\/code><\/p><div class=\"note\"><strong>Note<\/strong>: It can take up to 24\u201348 hours for DNS changes to take effect, so be patient. Once your domain is pointing to TheBeeHost\u2019s nameservers, you can proceed to add the domain in cPanel.<\/div><h4>Log into cPanel<\/h4><ul><li>Once your domain is correctly pointed to TheBeeHost&#8217;s nameservers, log in to your <strong>cPanel<\/strong> account. You can usually do this by going to <code>your-already-hosted-domain.com:2083<\/code> in your web browser.<\/li><li>Enter your username and password to access the cPanel dashboard.<br \/>OR<\/li><li>On the other hand you can directly login at your cPanel account from TheBeeHost Client Area.<\/li><\/ul><h4>Go to the &#8220;Domains&#8221; Section<\/h4><ul><li>Once you&#8217;re in the cPanel dashboard, look for the <strong>Domains<\/strong> section.<\/li><li>Click on the <strong>Domains<\/strong> tool appears in <strong>Domains<\/strong> section.<br \/><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2357\" src=\"https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Domains.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"826\" height=\"327\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Domains.png 826w, https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Domains-300x119.png 300w, https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Domains-768x304.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 826px) 100vw, 826px\" \/><\/li><\/ul><h4>Fill in the Domain Details<\/h4><h4><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-334\" src=\"https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/cPanel-Addon-Domains-Tool-missing-1.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 935px) 100vw, 935px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/cPanel-Addon-Domains-Tool-missing-1.png 935w, https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/cPanel-Addon-Domains-Tool-missing-1-300x218.png 300w, https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/cPanel-Addon-Domains-Tool-missing-1-768x559.png 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"935\" height=\"680\" \/><\/h4><ul><li><strong>Domain<\/strong>: In this box, type the full domain name that you want to add (e.g., <code>newdomain.com<\/code>).<br \/><div class=\"note\"><strong>Note<\/strong>: This is the new website that you want to add. Make sure your domain is pointing to the right server before you add it here.<\/div><\/li><li><strong>Document Root<\/strong>: This is the folder where all the files for your website will be saved. By default, cPanel will create a folder in <strong>public_html<\/strong> (e.g., <code>public_html\/newdomain.com<\/code>). If you prefer to store the files somewhere else, you can change this folder name.<br \/><div class=\"note\"><strong>Note<\/strong>: The <strong>Document Root<\/strong> is where your website files will be located. You can choose a custom folder if you want, but if you don\u2019t change it, cPanel will create a folder for you under <strong>public_html<\/strong>.<\/div><\/li><li><strong>Subdomain<\/strong>: This field will automatically fill in with part of your domain name (e.g., <code>newdomain<\/code> for <code>newdomain.com<\/code>). This is a <strong>required<\/strong> field, and it <strong>cannot be skipped<\/strong>.<br \/><div class=\"note\"><strong>Note<\/strong>: The <strong>Subdomain<\/strong> is created automatically by cPanel. It links your domain to the folder where your website files are stored. For example, if you add <code>newdomain.com<\/code>, cPanel will create a subdomain like <code>newdomain.primarydomain.com<\/code>. You can change the name if you want, but it is necessary for the system to work.<\/div><\/li><\/ul><h4>Add the Domain<\/h4><ul><li>After filling out all the fields, click <strong>Submit<\/strong>.<\/li><li>cPanel will now create the necessary files and folders for your new domain.<\/li><\/ul><h4>Final Thoughts<\/h4><p>Adding a domain to your cPanel account is easy once you know the steps. With just a few clicks, you can set up a new website on your hosting account. Make sure your DNS settings are correct and that the subdomain creation doesn\u2019t cause any problems with your domain.<\/p><p>By following these steps, you&#8217;ll be able to manage multiple websites on your hosting account without any trouble.<\/p><p>If you need help or have any questions, feel free to contact TheBeeHost support through live chat or a support ticket.<\/p><div class=\"banner\"><div class=\"banner-content\"><h1>Install WordPress Effortlessly<\/h1><p>Get started with just a click and build your dream website today!<\/p><p><a class=\"install-button\" href=\"https:\/\/thebeehost.com\/wiki\/installing-wordpress-on-domain-sub-domain\/\">Install Now<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"tmnf_excerpt\"><p>cPanel is a popular tool used by many hosting providers to manage websites.
