Addon Domain |
An Addon Domain has its own document root directory. With an Addon Domain, you can operate an independent website. |

Primary Domain |
A primary domain is assigned to every web hosting package. The document root is always located in /public_html and cannot be changed. If you manage multiple domains in one web hosting package and would like to change the primary domain, please contact our support. |

Multi-domain |
You can manage multiple domains with any web hosting package. helloly offers you true multi-domain support. This means that you can operate several websites with a single web hosting package. |

Parked Domain |
A Parked Domain is an additional domain and shares a document root directory with the primary domain. A Parked Domain therefore points to the website of the primary domain. |

Subdomain |
A subdomain is a child domain of a domain. The most well-known is probably the classic "www" subdomain. You can create multiple subdomains for your domain. This can be useful if, for example, you want to separate your blog and your website. In that case, you could create a subdomain like "blog.yourdomain.tld" for your blog. |
Create a subdomain? It's that simple. |
