    Hi,

    I have several websites on several webhosts. One of my Webhosts expresses that I am allowed to host multiple domains. How can I host different websites on one webhost?

    If you hosting plan allows you to add multiple main domains you can host few web sites easily. You can do it using CPannel.
    Another way is if your hosting plan allows you to add one main domain but you are allowed add few addon domains. Here I think your web host allows you add multiple main domains so please go to your CPannel and add the domains you want.

    Depends if your on shared hosting or reseller hosting.

    With shared hosting, you use the addon domain feature in cpanel.

    With reseller hosting, you create new accounts in the cpanel WHM.

    Well,

    Thank you all, but I still don't know what to do. My Webhost is startLogic. It has some part in Cpanel named "Custom DNS Record" and I guess it should be it but I am not sure. It says I can have multiple domains but I don't see any of the options you mentioned in its Cpanel!

    make sub directories on the root and also create a add-on domain then set the path as the sub dir.Update the name servers on the registrar with the new hosts and wait until 24 hrs will the site up
