Overview
This article offers answers to common questions about domains and subdomains.
The following does not apply to DreamPress or Shared Starter hosting plans, as the amount of sites you can add depends on which plan you purchase.
FAQs
Is there a limit to how many domains/subdomains I can add to my panel?
-
Shared, VPS, and Dedicated Hosting plans allow an unlimited number of domains and subdomains.
How much is it for an extra domain?
-
If you want to host an entirely new domain, you must first register it. This can be done on the Manage Registrations page or through another domain registrar. See this article for pricing information.
Does a new domain get its own storage space and username?
-
You can use the same username as your current domain, or you can create a new username. All web files for the domain are stored under the user you assign to it. But, please note that the amount of space allotted depends on your hosting plan. For example, when you purchase a VPS plan you must choose how much disk space you’d like the user to have.
What if I already have a registration at another company?
-
If you've already purchased a registration at another company, you can point its DNS to your DreamHost DNS records. After the DNS is pointing to DreamHost, the domain you've added hosting for will be hosted at DreamHost.
