Redundancy was key to our future what that means is, the constant needed to be Parcom and the loyal customers for many years to come.

We are not the same as the vast majority of our competitors in that we focus more on security and speed to assure our clients have the best experience for their web sites. We do not compete with those offering the unlimited disk space type features because that is not good for customers to be next to the demands of people not storing true web site content, but rather their entire desktop or even personal files from their music collections. Our company does not wish to compete with the unlimited or a 1000 terabyte service providers because we believe our customers are smart. They want the best quality disk space and do not wish to be subject to slow speeds all due to abuse from a nearby customer on the same system. 4

A popular use for this is where a client wishes to install a specific app (i.e. blog) and use a subdomain such as blog. yourdomain.com or forum.yourdomain.com This feature shares the disk space too. Subdomains Quarterly 6 Months Annual 2 $0.50 + $0.25 Setup $1.00 + $0.25 Setup $2.00 + $0.25 Setup 5 $1.00 + $0.20 Setup $2.00 + $0.20 Setup $4.00 + $0.20 Setup 25 $1.50 + $0.15 Setup $3.00 + $0.15 Setup $6.00 Unlimited $2.00 + $0.10 Setup $4.00 + $0.10 Setup $8.00 6
Parked Domains Parked domains are like domain aliases in that the another domain can point to a primary domain. This is good for those who wish to register vanity type domains to cover the spectrum of extensions a client wishes to have. For instance, domain.net may point to domain.com etc. This is very powerful for maintaining a brand and we encourage clients to make sure their web site does not have cybersquatting where another person may register the same domain but just a different extension! They may do so with malicious intent to steal your client/visitors! So best to use this powerful feature to assure your brand is not threatened by other people on the Internet. This may or may not be important to some clients, but it is there as a convenience to all who do value this feature. Parked Domains Quarterly 6 Months Annual 2 $0.50 + $0.25 Setup $1.00 + $0.25 Setup $2.00 + $0.25 Setup 5 $1.00 + $0.20 Setup $2.00 + $0.20 Setup $4.00 + $0.20 Setup 25 $1.50 + $0.15 Setup $3.00 + $0.15 Setup $6.00 Unlimited $2.00 + $0.10 Setup $4.00 + $0.10 Setup $8.00 Add-On Domains Add-on domains are very powerful. Some people like to purchase these as full accounts where the domain has all the same features as the parent domain, but it has its own e-mail, user base, etc. This is used for smaller domains and is not recommended to be used to house many production business sites (some resellers think this is a good idea to use or exploit) The reason this is not a feature to use for many production business sites is if one fails or has issues they all can have issues. They do share disk space so if one runs out of space, all of your domains run out of space too. A good use of this service is to have a family site isolated from a business site. A modest hobby site or two business identities is commonly used. However, if you wish to transfer ownership of another company site, it is always best to use a full cloud account instead of this feature. With that said, this is a very powerful feature that many have come to enjoy at Parcom!
