How do I add an addon domain to HostGator?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 6:57 pm

Adding an addon domain to HostGator is simple. Navigate to HostGator’s settings page and click on the “Addons” tab. From here, you’ll need to provide the following information:

1. The name of your addon domain

2. The DNS information for your addon domain

3. The IP address of your addon domain

4. The port for your addon domain

5. The username and password for your addon domain

Once you’ve completed the required fields, click “Apply” to complete the process. If everything goes according to plan, your addon domain will now be available for use on HostGator.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with modifying DNS records, we recommend that you contact your domain registrar or use a third-party DNS management service. Adding an addon domain to your HostGator account will create a new folder in your public_html directory. Any existing files in your public_html directory will be accessible from your addon domain.

As always, we recommend that you test your addon domain before relying on it for serious hosting needs.
