    OK, i have a problem. Im using a free x10hosting, with the main url, manutdforever.x10hosting.com, now i want to host a site ejob.info to the same acount. So i created an addon domain in cpanel. After it was set up, i uploaded the files to public_html/ejob.info ( the folder i was supoosed to). now my problem is this, when i created an addon domain, it created a subdomain ( is this supposed to happen) now when i visit ejob.info, and click on any page, it goes to ejob.manutdforever.x10hosting.com ..How do i get it to go to ejob.info only.What am i doing wrong. Im completely stumped

    An addon domain is nothing more than a subdomain that redirects to the the domain name. If you actually bought the domain ejob.info you need to change the NS to point to the same address as your primary domain.

    That is a server side issue and there is nothing you can do about it. As long as the correct domain shows in the address bar most people will never notice the transfer part.

    About the best you will do on a free host.
