Domain
Parking allows you to associate a registered domain with a single
temporary webpage without having to set up a hosting plan. If
you’ve registered your domain, but are not yet ready to have
it hosted on a full hosting plan, you should set up domain parking
to let Internet users know some basic information about your site.
Aplus.Net
offers three kinds of domain parking:
- Free Parking associates
your domain with a page that says “This site under construction". This
service is provided free to customers who have registered
a domain with Aplus.Net / Names4Ever.com.
- Sale Parking associates
your domain with a page that offers the domain name for sale and
includes basic contact information that buyers can use to get in
touch with you, the seller. This
service costs $2.99 per year.
- Business Parking associates
your domain with a single page that provides basic information
about your company. This
service costs $14.99 per year.
If
you have an Aplus.Net registration number associated with your domain
registration, you can use the Aplus.Net Control Panel to set up domain
parking for your domain.
Here’s
how:
- Start by logging into
the Aplus.Net Control Panel at http://cp.aplus.net using your Registration
Number and Customer Password.
- Select the Domain
Names menu located in the Buy Services section of
your web control panel.
- Select Domain Parking.
Select the type of parking that you need and click the respective Sign
up Now button.
- Aplus.Net only permits Domain
Parking to be created for domains that are currently registered
with Aplus.Net / Names4Ever.com. If your domain is already registered
with Aplus.Net / Names4Ever.com, select the domain name from
the Use available domains drop down menu, skip to step
7. If your domain is registered with another registrar, select
the Register New Domain radio button, and then the Domain
Transfer radio button. This will initiate a transfer of your
domain from your current registrar to Aplus.Net / Names4Ever.com.
If you want to register a new domain that is currently available,
please select the Register New Domain radio button, and
then the Domain Registration radio button.
Important: All new domain name registration/transfer sales are
final and not refundable.
- Enter the domain name
into the Domain Name field.
- Enter a domain password
into the Password fields.
- Click Proceed to Finalize
Order to finish the set-up process. Click Cancel to escape.
