 | View Full Version : what are the differents between multi-domain and domain redirection? UmBillyCord 06-14-2002, 09:57 PM Redirection - Domains points to subdirectory. Not real, virtual hosting. Multidomain - True, virtual domains. No redirection. Multiple sites hosted under one interface. However, all are separate in terms of files/dirs, e-mail, etc.... With control panels like CP, Ensim, and Plesk, domains can actually almost be treated like e-mail addresses use to be. Pick how many domains are allowed within space and bandwidth constraint, and let your customers manage them. Except for specialty hosting, all basic web hosting will be multi-domain soon. Just my two. Rochen 06-14-2002, 10:04 PM Domain redirection is useful if you have domain.com and domain.net and they are both the same site, it just happens you have 2 domains for it. You can make domain.net point to domain.com. Multiple Domain Hosting is useful if you have domain.com and domain1.com which are about completely different things (different sites) you can then host both of them under 1 account. Effectively it is 2 separate accounts, files, email etc. (as UmBillyCord explained above) :) nba2003 06-14-2002, 10:46 PM got it.THX!
