How to add additional domains in Sered?

Updated yesterday

Do you want to know how to add additional domains in Sered? Do you need to create additional domains for your website? In this guide, we show you how to add additional domains, as well as install WordPress on a domain with Installatron from the cPanel control panel.

To do this, it is very important to make sure you have registered the domain you want to add with the DNS of Sered.net which are the ones we provide you with below:

  • dns1.sered.net

  • dns2.sered.net

What is an additional domain?

An additional domain is a fully functional domain that you can create from the Sered cPanel. You have to take into account that you have multiple web hosting packages that share the same control panel. You can create email addresses as you would with a domain from your main account.

The only difference is that the files share the same dashboard and server is already referenced by name servers or an A record.

How to add an additional domain?

First, you must access the Sered Client Area, simply by filling in your access data that you used to register on our website.

Afterwards, you will have to go to the orange button "ENTER CPANEL", and click on it.

Then, you need to go to the "DOMAINS" section, and click on the "DOMAINS" tool to start creating your additional domains.

Later, a new window of "DOMAINS" will open where you can create your domain alias by following these instructions:

  1. Add the additional domain in the "Domain" area.

  2. In "Document Root (file system location)", it is recommended to disable the "Share document root" checkbox, as shown in the image below.

  3. Finally, you must click on the "SUBMIT" button. And your additional domain will be successfully created.
