How To Create Domain

  • Note: Please link your domain directly to the main file (don't link the public folder under main file).
  • When Creating A Store-Domain : When you create any domain, link your store domain where you have linked your main domain.

    • Create Domain Cpanel

    Useful resources
  • Log in to your cPanel account using your username and password.
  • Locate the Domains Section: Once you're logged in to cPanel, look for the "Domains" section. It may have different names, such as "Domains" or "Domains" or "Domains" or "Domain Management."
  • Click "Add Domain" or "Addon Domains": In the "Domains" section, you will typically find an option called "Add Domain" or "Addon Domains." Click on this option to proceed.

  • Enter the Domain Details: In the "Add Domain" or "Addon Domains" page, you'll be prompted to enter the following details:
  • New Domain Name: Enter the domain name you want to add (e.g., example.com).
  • Subdomain/FTP Username (Optional): If you want a specific FTP account for the domain, you can enter a subdomain or FTP username. Otherwise, cPanel will generate one for you.
  • Document Root (Optional): You can specify the folder where the website files for the domain will reside. By default, cPanel will create a folder based on the domain name in the public_html directory.
  • Set Additional Options (Optional): Depending on your cPanel setup, you may have additional options to configure, such as enabling SSL, setting up a redirection, etc.
  • Click "Add Domain" or "Add": Once you've filled in the required details and configured any additional options, click the appropriate button to create the domain.
  • Update DNS (if necessary): If the domain is registered elsewhere and is using external DNS, you'll need to update its DNS settings to point to your hosting provider's server IP address. If your domain is already using the hosting provider's nameservers, this step is unnecessary.

  • Subdomain: Enter the desired subdomain name (e.g., subdomain.example.com). The main domain should already be selected in the dropdown.
