How to Add Multiple Domains in Hostinger Web Hosting: A Step-by-Step Guide

If you're using Hostinger web hosting and want to host multiple domains on the same account, you’re in luck! Hostinger offers the ability to add multiple domains under one hosting plan, making it easy to manage all your websites in one place.

Introduction

Looking to add multiple domains in Hostinger? Whether you're managing different websites or building multiple projects, Hostinger allows you to efficiently handle multiple domains without the need for separate hosting accounts. In this guide, we’ll show you how to add extra domains to your Hostinger web hosting account.

Step 1: Ensure You Have a Plan That Supports Multiple Domains

Before you start, make sure that your Hostinger hosting plan supports multiple domains. The Premium and Business Shared Hosting plans both allow you to host unlimited websites. If you're on the Single Shared Hosting plan, you’ll need to upgrade to host more than one domain.

• Pro Tip: Check out the Hostinger hosting plans to find the one that suits your needs.

Step 2: Purchase or Add Your New Domain

If you haven’t already registered your new domain, you’ll need to purchase one. You can buy a domain directly from Hostinger or use a domain from another provider.

• Buy a domain here: Hostinger Domain Registration

If you’re using an existing domain registered elsewhere (e.g., Truehost or GoDaddy), you’ll need to point its DNS to Hostinger’s servers by updating the nameservers.

Step 3: Access Your Hostinger Dashboard

1. Log in to your Hostinger account.
2. From the Hostinger control panel (hPanel), go to the Hosting section.

Step 4: Add Your New Domain to Hostinger

To add your new domain, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Websites section and click on Manage next to your existing website.
2. From the side menu, navigate to the Domains tab and click on Add Website.
3. In the Add Website screen, enter your new domain name.
4. Click Submit to add the domain to your account.

Step 5: Point the Domain to Hostinger Nameservers

If you bought your domain through Hostinger, it’s already configured. However, if you bought it from a third-party provider, you’ll need to update the DNS nameservers for your domain:

1. Go to your domain provider’s dashboard (e.g., Truehost, GoDaddy).
2. Replace the existing nameservers with Hostinger’s nameservers:
   • ns1.dns-parking.com
   • ns2.dns-parking.com
3. Save your changes and wait for the DNS propagation (usually takes up to 24-48 hours).

Step 6: Set Up the New Website

Once the domain is pointed to Hostinger, you can start setting up your website:

1. Go to your Hostinger dashboard.
2. Select the newly added domain under Websites.
3. You can now:
• Install WordPress using the Auto Installer.
• Upload your website files via File Manager or FTP.

Step 7: Manage Multiple Domains in Hostinger

Now that you’ve added multiple domains, you can easily manage them from your Hostinger dashboard:

• Navigate between websites by selecting the domain from the Websites section.
• Use the File Manager, Email settings, and other tools available for each domain.

Conclusion

Adding multiple domains to your Hostinger web hosting account is simple and efficient. Whether you're managing several projects or expanding your online presence, Hostinger provides an intuitive dashboard to control all your websites under one hosting plan.
