Parked Domains Explained:
 
  
The parked domain feature allows multiple domain names to access your main domain name. A parked domain would display the same pages as your main domain, but using the parked domain name. For example. if your main domain name was example.com, you could setup a parked domain name for example.org. Then, everytime someone typed example.org in a web browser, the content of example.com would display, retaining the URL example.org in your address bar. Further, parked domains have full email functionality, so you would be able to have email addresses, aliases, and forwarders for [email protected].
