A parked domain address is one which is taken, yet it is not linked to some other service - web or e-mail hosting. To put it differently, this kind of domain name will not load any real content if you type it within a browser, but no one else can take it as you have already registered it and you are its owner. The advantage of getting a domain and parking it afterwards is that you will be able to keep it and not worry that somebody else could possibly register it meanwhile if, for instance, the site for it is not ready yet. You may create a short-term Under Construction page for a parked domain while you are working on the site, or direct it to some other web address - temporarily or permanently. The second option can be used if you have already registered domain.com, for example, and you get domain.net and domain.org, so as to protect a brand name or a trademark. In such a case, the .net and .org domains can be parked and directed to the .com since you do not need separate websites for them.

Parked Domains in Cloud Hosting

When you have a Linux cloud hosting with our company, you're going to be able to park each of your domain names with ease. The feature is offered for the domain names registered with our company, and not for the ones which are only hosted here and pointed from another company, as a domain can be parked only through its registrar. Our Domain Manager instrument will enable you to choose from a variety of templates and you're going to be able to add custom text to any of them. Forwarding a domain address to a new URL is as easy as only typing the Internet address and saving it. If you decide to host any of your parked domain names, it takes simply a mouse click to do it and our system will do the rest - changing the name servers, creating a domain folder in your account, creating the needed DNS records, etc. For much easier administration, you are going to be able to filter the domain names registered in the account by their status - parked or hosted.
