Add-on domain url

[JT Wallace]

My domain name is globalresortlinx.com.

I created an add-on domain successfully; its name is evergreenopportunity.com.
I have created and published evergreenopportunity.index, evergreenopportunity_index and public_html/evergreenopportunity.html.

What is the url for this add-on domain - I can't get it to appear.

Also, I wanted to use this as a separate landing page, so I want only the page "evergreenopportunity" to appear.

What is the difference between an add-on domain and a subdomain?

Thanks,
Jeanette Wallace

Re: Add-on domain url

Hi JT
When publishing.. public_html is your Main Account… So when you publish the index… Make sure it’s published to public_html/evergreenopportunity. Both Sub Domains and Add On Domains are folders in your account.. But an Add On Domain has its own address; so when evergreenopportunity.com is looked for…There it is. A Sub Domain is essentially a folder/file within your main domain, is free to add, and carries the name of your main domain with it in its url (address). Like subdomain.yoursite.com.
Hope That Helps… Doug

Re: Add-on domain url

Hi, dougnez and thanks for answering.

I still cannot get evergreenopportunity (hereafter eo) .com to show up. It returns a message saying server not found.

1) in my cpanel under public files I have cgi-bin. There are no subfiles showing. There is also eo.com, which has a subfile called cgi-bin.
2) In my bv files on my computer I have a folder called website pages. In that folder is a subfolder called eo pages. In the eo pages folder there are 3 files: a bv evergreenopportunity, an html file of the same name, and a bv file called evergreenopportunityindex.

This is as complete a description as I can give you. What do I have to do or undo in order to get the url www.evergreenopportunity.com to show up?

I have to get this done, and I'm totally flummoxed at this point.

Thanks for any help you or anyone else can offer.

Re: Add-on domain url

Hi Jeanette

The easiest way to do this is to
Set up a seperate folder, name it whatever your
addon domain name is

EG if your domain is willybilly.com
then name the folder willybilly

Then design your main page that you wish to use
in that domain and name it index

Save it to that folder.
Inside the folder there should now be a file
called index.

While you have the page open in your builder click on
"Publish"
In the foder section you should have "public_html" showing
type into it /evergreenopportunity so you then have "public_html/evergreenopportunity"

Now publish

When complete open your addon domain name in
your browser EG: www.evergreenopportunity.com

and you should see your page

hope this helps

Hi .

- An add on domain is a domain name that you order and purchase and then you will add on to your main domain account as an ADD ON DOMAIN.
An ADD ON DOMAIN will have it's own url and found by the domain name you ordered.

- A sub-domain is just an extension of one of your domains and is a sub-folder to that domain, is free and does not have it's own url.

So firstly, you need to purchase this domain before you can add it onto your account ..

Then you can follow aussiebazs post and the only diffference you might find yourself publishing to public_html/evergreenopportunity.com - the difference being using the .com as well - this will be determined when you add on the domain name that you purchase ...
