Creating a domain alias in cPanel allows you to point multiple domain names to the same website, enabling you to use different domain names to access the same content. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to create a domain alias using Infini Host's cPanel interface.

 

Step 1: Log in to Your Infini Host cPanel Account:

  1. Open your web browser and navigate to the cPanel login page provided by Infini Host.
  2. Enter your cPanel username and password to log in.

 

Step 2: Locate the "Aliases" Section:

  1. Once logged in, find the "Domain" or "Domains" section in your cPanel dashboard.
  2. Look for the "Aliases" or "Addon Domains" option.

 

Step 3: Add a New Domain Alias:

  1. In the "Aliases" or "Addon Domains" section, you'll find an option to "Create a New Alias" or "Add Domain."
  2. Enter the domain you want to set up as an alias in the provided field.

 

Step 4: Configure Settings:

  1. Subdomain/FTP Username: This field may auto-fill based on your domain. You can customize it if needed.
  2. Document Root: Choose the directory where the alias's files will be stored. This is typically the same as your primary domain.

 

Step 5: Complete the Process:

  1. Click the "Add Domain" or "Create" button to complete the process.

 

Step 6: Verify Domain Alias:

  1. Return to the main cPanel dashboard.
  2. Check the "Aliases" or "Addon Domains" section to verify that your new domain alias is listed.

 

Additional Tips:

  1. DNS Configuration:

    • Ensure that the DNS for your domain alias is configured to point to the same server as your primary domain. This is usually managed through your domain registrar.
  2. SSL Certificate (if applicable):

    • If your primary domain has an SSL certificate, consider installing an SSL certificate for the domain alias to ensure secure connections.
  3. Testing the Alias:

    • Open a web browser and enter your domain alias. It should now display the same content as your primary domain.
