How to Add an Addon Domain in cPanel

If you want to host multiple websites under the same hosting account, you can add them as addon domains. Each addon domain will function like a separate website with its own files, email accounts, and subdomains.


1. Log in to cPanel

2. Scroll down to the Domains section and click Addon Domains

3. Fill in the form:

New Domain Name:

Enter the full domain you want to add (e.g., example2.com)

Subdomain:

This will be auto-filled – you can leave it as-is

Document Root:

This is the folder where website files will go. It’s usually:

public_html/example2.com

(You can customize this if needed)

4. Click Add Domain

5. Upload your website files to the folder specified in Document Root (via File Manager or FTP)

DNS Reminder:

Make sure the domain’s nameservers are pointing to WAYSCloud:ns01.wayscloud.no  and ns02.wayscloud.no. DNS changes may take a few hours to propagate.
