    Hi!

    I have my hosting at hostgator (unlimited domains) and two domains example
    first domain is www.mydomain.org and second www.blabla.com.

    The first domain www.mydomain.org is "linked" to public_html
    And I want the second domain www.blabla.com to public_html/bla
    Now I found on google that I can do this with my cpanel (Addon Domains).
    So i did that and then what happens is when i go to www.blabla.com it redirects to bla.mydomain.org. Can't this just open in www.blabla.com and not bla.mydomain.org?

    I filled the textboxes with:
    New Domain Name: blabla.com
    Username/directory/subdomain Name: bla
    Password: ******

    Thanks for help

    PS: Sorry had no idea in which category to put this :eek:

    First thing to check if your hosting account have permission to have multiple domains. Lot of hosting packages don't have that. Best thing would be open a ticket, they would reply fast.

    Are you sure you put it on Addon Domains and not Sub Domains?

    Are you sure that your Domain providers allows you to enter
    example.com
    or you are forced to enter
    www.example.com

    Another reason is that you have to wait for DNS propagation: it can takes even more than 24 hours

    Well it works with www. (didnt even try that) but if i type the domain name without www so: blabla.com i get a redirection to bla.mydomain.org (this is in my url) but this website: http://whmspeak.com/ opens.

    There is no such folder as bla or subdomain on my hosting.
