TO CREATE ADD ON DOMAIN 3STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED:

1. a folder is created in the 'public html' directory 

2. a sub domain is created for the primary domain and attached to the new 

folder 

3. the new domain name is associated with the sub domain.

 Think of it as having multiple hosting packages all sharing the same control panel. 

You can give them email addresses, forwarders, and more the same way you do for 

your main domain on the account.

The add on domain will appear as a totally separate domain from your primary 

domain. There should be no evidence that your domain is an add on domain to 

incoming traffic when they visit your add on domain.

When you create an  add on domain in the c Panel interface, the system creates 

automatically a sub domain. To alter or delete the sub domain after you create it, 

you may alter or delete the information that the  add on domain's website 

displays. The name servers of your domain should be changed to In Motion's 

name servers if you want the DNS to be handled automatically for you in the 

name of add on domain.Otherwise, you will need to make several record changes 

in your DNS to point web and mail services to In  motion.
