Add-on Domains/Sub-domains

2 replies
Hi.

I've added a couple of add-on domains to my Hostgator account but they are also showing up as sub-domains. Can I delete them from sub-domains or do they have to be in both places?

Thanks,
#addon #domains or subdomains

    Leave them there. That's just the way that addon domains works.

    as sbucciarel says best to leave it

    on the hosting service you have an account - think of it as a folder like c:/my docs

    when you add an "add on domain" it adds a folder eg) c:/my docs/website1 so the files are logically stored on the linux box and can be accessed by apache (web server)

    CPanel creates them because its how it works and only creates what is needed to work so best leave it as it is
