How to Add Domain in cPanel

Описание: Add Domain in cPanel Tutorial. Addon domains allow you to control multiple domains from a single account. An addon domain links a new domain name to a subdirectory of your account's public_html (document root) directory, and then stores its files in that subdirectory.
Addon domains. How do they work?
Addon domains are subdomains that have their own, unique domain names.

Like subdomains, addon domains are stored in a subdirectory somewhere in your home directory. Essentially, visitors to your addon domain will be routed to this directory. You may specify the name and precise location of this directory when creating the addon domain. It’s not necessarily a requirement that an addon domain’s directory be in public_html, though it’s generally considered good practice.

In our example, the addon domain’s public_html subdirectory will be ~/public_html/cpdocs.com/.
What do I need to do before creating the addon domain?
This is the difficult part. It’s difficult because I can’t possibly explain every domain registrar’s interface. I have; however, provided screenshots of my registrar’s interface below.

All we’re going to do in this step is change our addon domain’s primary nameservers at the registrar. We need to specify our local nameservers, in this case ns1.hawkhost.net and ns2.hawkhost.net. This change can take a few hours, so be patient.

When changing your nameservers, you’re going to need to find the section of your registrar’s interface that looks like this:

How do I create the addon domain?
To create an addon domain, we can use cPanel’s Addon Domains feature, in the Domains section of the cPanel interface.
Enter the addon domain’s domain name in the New Domain Name field. In this case, we will enter cpdocs.com.
Ensure the FTP username is appropriate in the next field. In this scenario, we will leave it as its default value, cpdocs.
Make sure that the document root is in the appropriate place. In this example, we will use the default value, ~/public_html/cpdocs.com/.
Enter and confirm the password you want to use with this domain in the appropriate fields. This password will be used for the domain’s MySQL and FTP accounts.
Click the Add button.
Verifying our DNS settings
We need to verify that the domain’s IP is set up correctly. We can use cPanel’s Advanced DNS Zone Editor to review and change DNS information. The IP address from our working example is 208.74.120.250.
Once the A record is properly configured, the DNS information will begin to propagate. This could also take a few hours, so remain patient. Once it has, the addon domain will be publicly accessible.
