    I bought a hosting accoutn from resellerzoom.com and it says you can host up to 30 sites on 1 account.

    But how do you do that? I just bought a domain name and don't want to buy seperate hosts so does anybody know how to do this?

    Do they have CPanel? It is very easy to manage multiple websites in one account through cpanel or something similar.

    The process is slightly different depending on whether you bought a reseller account or a regular account with addon domains.

    Since you are at resllerzoom, I am assuming it is a reseller account. You log into to WHM and host a new domain. You may have to "create a package" first.

    Rather than me writing a book go to the cPanel demo site and take a tour of WHM (Web Host Manager).

    Be glad to try and answer any questions after you visit the demo.

    If you use Cpanel,Click "addon domains" and add the domain.

    Have you set your name servers to go to the host? I'd suggest emailing them because you didn't really tell us what interface you are using. It's hard to say exactly what you need to do without knowing more about your setup.

    you do it by adding subdomain. It will basically ad it as your subdomain but when visitors visit your sites, it will be a the main site.


    I have similar case with my hostony.
    Good luck

    1. domain forwarding to a folder in your website.
    2. unlimited domain account with your hosting company

    First thing the number of accounts that you can create with resellerzoom.com is 50 and not 30. Even in those 50 individual accounts you can host more than 1 site.

    If you need to create an account:

    1. Login to your whm
    2. Add a package (if you don't have any)
    3. Create an account (assign the domain name with the package).
    4. Change the server information of your domain.

    You can even host multiple sites with your single account. This is done from the cpanel/site management tools/addon domains.

    However for this you will have to change your settings from whm to allow addon domains in that individual account.

    Ok I have cpanel and wmh.

    Let me get this straight to you guys.

    I want to host a COMPLETELY different site on 1 hosting account.

    I already have an account there and am hosting www.fantasy-pc.com .

    I bought a site and need to change hosts and its domain to this host I am using. So how would I go about that? Just put an addon domain or add another package?
