If I Add A Domain Do I Still Have The Subdomain? theres still another question

Recommended Posts

I am just wondering, for example if I buy the domain http://www.test-test.com/ and redirect it to my Xisto site will I still have the subdomain I signed up with?So just breaking it down:test-test.trap17.com *Beforethenadd domain http://www.test-test.com/
can I still access my website using test-test.trap17.com?and second question, can I use two domains and redirect them both to my Xisto site, so for example I have two domains http://www.test-test.com/
and http://imptestrm.com/rg-erdr.php?_dnm=www.testing-testing.com&_cfrg=1&_drid=as-drid-2300300503455222 can I redirect then both to the same Xisto website?not saying that i will be doing this (domains are just getting more and more expensive by the yocto-second...)

Yes, you keep the subdomain as long as you add your new domain as a parked domain. Once you have registered your domain and set the name servers, go into cPanel and find the Parked Domains button. Hit that and then tap your new domain into the box. Click Add and wait a few seconds, and it should work :) To confirm, both of these links go to my website, which is set up in that way: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ and http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

and second question, can I use two domains and redirect them both to my Xisto site, so for example I have two domains http://www.test-test.com/ and http://imptestrm.com/rg-erdr.php?_dnm=www.testing-testing.com&_cfrg=1&_drid=as-drid-2300300503455222 can I redirect then both to the same Xisto website?

Yup, just park them both using the method I (briefly) described above. As far as I am aware, cPanel limits you to 9 parked domains by default, but I am pretty sure you could get that increased if you really need to.

Also, just so you're aware, on the Parked Domains page of cPanel, you'll see this message:

This feature must be enabled manually on your account. Please contact support if you paid for it and it is not enabled.

Ignore it, it's wrong.

If you park the domain test-test.com over test-test.trap17.com, both will work . If you park testing-testing.com under test-test.trap17.com then all 3 domains will work..but for all 3 to work the primary/main domain has to be test-test.trap17.com. Otherwise you can have test-test.com as the primary domain and all the other as parked domains except test-test.trap17.comIn short.. If you want test-test.trap17.com to work, you have to have to have test-test.trap17.com as your primary domain.
