Add an extra domain (website) in DirectAdmin

Table Of Contents

In one plan you can host several websites, each with its own folder, own mail and own DNS. You add an extra website in DigiPanel: that way we check the domain name right away and set up the DNS and your email correctly.

Here's how #

  1. Open your client area and go to Services → your plan.
  2. Open the Website tab and go to Websites in this plan.
  3. Click Add website. Choose a domain name you have with us, or type a domain from elsewhere, and click Add.
  4. Your new site is in the folder domains/yournewdomain.be/public_html. Upload your files there or install WordPress.
  5. Is the domain registered elsewhere? Point the name servers to us (ns1.digi.hosting and ns2.digi.hosting), or set an A record to your plan's IP address.

In DigiPanel you also see how many websites your plan allows.

In DirectAdmin itself (Domain Setup) you can no longer add a domain: you get a message that it goes through DigiPanel. That's intentional.
