How to Create an Alias or Park a Domain in cPanel

An Alias domain, previously referred to as a parked domain, allows you to display the same website content on multiple domain names. In simple terms, when visitors access your alias domain, they will automatically see the content of your primary website.

This feature is useful if you own multiple domain names and want them all to point to the same website without creating separate hosting accounts.

Important: Before creating an Alias domain, ensure that the domain’s DNS records are properly pointed to our hosting server.
