How to Add a Parked Domain on 1&1 Hosting

The company, 1&1 Internet Inc. provides Web hosting services and allows you to add an unlimited number of domains to your domain and park them. Domain parking refers to the practice of registering an Internet address without associating any content or service with it. Park a domain if, for example, you want to resell it or develop a website for it at a later time. Add a parked domain to your 1&1 account in just a few steps.

Instructions

1. Launch your Internet browser and visit the 1&1 Control Panel page. Log in using your 1&1 username and password (see Resources).

2. Click on the package you wish to add a parked domain to. If you only have one hosting package, ignore this step. The website will now take you to the hosting package administration page.

3. Click on "Domains" under the Domains category. Then click on the "New" button above the list of domains and select "Add domain."

4. Type the domain name you wish to add to your account in the "Domain Name" field. Then click on the "Check Domain" button. A new page will now load, telling you if the domain name is available for registration or not. If it isn't, click on "Search Again," choose a new domain name and repeat this step. If it is available, read the "Terms and Conditions" and click on the check box. Then click on "Next."

5. Select either a "Public" or "Private" domain registration by clicking on one of the radio buttons. With a public registration, 1&1 will link your personal details to your domain name registration. With a private one, Internet users who perform a search on your domain name will not be able to access your personal details. Read the "Terms and Conditions," click on the check box and click on "Next."

6. Click on "Order" to finalize the registration process. The Web host 1&1 will now add and park your domain.
