Domain aliasing, or domain stacking, is creating additional domain names that would point to the IP of a different domain. For example, if your domain name is example.com, you can register another domain name, for instance example.net and have it point to the location of example.com. This means, every Internet user who goes to example.net will land in example.com.

- custom DNS records
- separate mail service
- Register the alias, exactly as you register domain names.
- From the control panel click the domain icon.
- Select the domain from the domain list if you have more than one.
- Click the Add icon in the Domain Aliases field at the bottom of the page.
- Enter the domain alias. This must be a fully qualified domain name, e.g. example.com:
- Leave the create DNS zone box unchecked if the domain alias is registered on a different DNS server. The domain alias will not be maintained and mail service will be inaccessible for this domain alias.
- Check the create DNS zone if you want a DNS record for this domain alias to be created on this hosting server. You'll be able to create and edit custom DNS records for the domain alias and mail service.
- You can set the alias domain up with its own mail service or it can be an alias to an existing email account.
- Selecting "new mail domain alias" will set the new domain as a mail domain alias to the existing domain.

This is also called virtual hosting (shared IP) and dedicated IP hosting.
Shared IP address: One IP address is assigned to several domains. There are a few limitations to this that revolve around the fact that you can only access the domain by its domain name, not the IP address.
Dedicated IP address: One IP address is assigned to one domain. To access a domain you can use either the IP address or domain name.
NOTE: Switching from a shared to dedicated IP address will delete your virtual FTP and SSL services. You can only switch from a shared to dedicated IP address if you have not exceeded your dedicated IP limit.
- From the control panel click the domain icon.
- Select the domain from the domain list if you have more than one.
- Click the "change to dedicated IP" link in the IP address field.
- If prompted, confirm the change by clicking "yes, I agree with the above".
NOTE: After you switch from a dedicated to shared IP address, it will take up to 72 hours for propagation before the domain becomes available at the new IP address.
