on my cpanel theres an option called addon domains!

am i right in beleiving if using this i can add an extra domain and assign it to a folder on my server for example if the domain was www.porkpie.com i could assign it to public_html/porkpie/

and it be fully functional like if i had a directory public_html/porkpie/images/

the domain would read...

www.porkpie.com/images/


????????

Let's say domain1.com was already hosted with cPanel. You also have domain2.com, which you'd like to host on the same server.

Change your namservers for domain2.com beforhand, to the ones domain1.com is on. Then add it in the "Add-on" domain section, assign it a folder, etc.

It's basically masked URL redirection, when they visit domain2.com afte rthe DNs has changed they couldn't tell that it's hosted by domain1.com

Hope that helps :D
