This will open your domains page.<\/li>\n<li>From the menu, select \u2018Assign\u2019.<\/li>\n<li>Once you are on the \u2018Assign Domain\u2019 Page, you will see two fields. \u201cUse a domain that is already associated with your account.\u201d And \u201cUse a domain that is not already associated with your account.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>(If you want to assign a domain name that is already associated with your\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/in\/tutorials\/a-step-by-step-guide-to-set-up-your-bluehost-account\">Bluehost account<\/a>,\u00a0 the first option is the best. In case the domain name you want to assign is not associated with your Bluehost account use the second option. In both cases, the flow remains the same.)<\/p>\n<p>In the above video, we have assigned a domain name that isn\u2019t associated with the Bluehost account.<\/p>\n<p>Type in the domain name in the text box and press enter. This will start the Owner Verification process, which may take some time.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ways to Verify Domain<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Domain verification can be done in three ways:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><strong>By Pointing Name servers to Bluehost<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If the Domain is purchased from Bluehost, the domain is already pointing its name servers to us<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3><strong>By Pointing the A record of the domain to the account IP<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If the domain is purchased from another registrar, you will need to send a request to your registrar to point the Name Servers to us or point the A records of the domain to your account IP.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h3><strong>By providing the EPP or AUTH Code<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Request an EPP or AUTH code from your registrar. A text box will be present in the \u2018Owner Verification\u2019 box. You can enter your EPP or AUTH code there.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ways to Assign the Domain<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In this step, you need to choose how you would like to assign the domain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Addon Domain<\/strong> \u2013 This points to a different subdirectory on your account and lets you display the domain as a completely different website.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Parked Domain<\/strong> \u2013 The domain will point to the same directory as your primary domain. The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/in\/tutorials\/parked-domain-names-the-how-and-why\">parked domain<\/a>\u00a0will have the same website as the primary domain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unassigned Domain<\/strong> \u2013 The domain will not point to a website or have a dedicated folder attached. You can\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/in\/hosting\">host a website<\/a>\u00a0on this domain name in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Herein, we\u2019ll assign the domain as an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/in\/hosting\/help\/addon-domain\">Addon Domain<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Choose Addon Directory and Sub-domain. Here, you can specify a directory that you would like the Addon domain to point to.<\/li>\n<li>You can either choose to use an existing directory or create a new one. The subdomain field will be populated automatically.<\/li>\n<li>Click on the \u2018Assign this Domain\u2019 button.<\/li>\n<li>Next, you can check if domain name assignment has been done successfully. This will take some time to reflect.<\/li>\n<li>Go to the \u2018Domains\u2019 page. Here, you can see the domain that you have assigned.<\/li>\n<li>Login to your Bluehost Panel and select \u2018Advanced\u2019 from the menu.<\/li>\n<li>Scroll down to \u2018Aliases\u2019 \u2013 and then, scroll down to the domain name whose directory you want to change.<\/li>\n<li>Click on \u2018Manage\u2019.<\/li>\n<li>In the \u2018New Document Root\u2019 field, make the changes and click on \u2018Update\u2019.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>And that\u2019s it, you have successfully changed the directory for an Addon Domain name.<\/p>\n<p>If you still need help with domain name assignment, then please reach out to us at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbl9OZGhHQm9QMFEzUm9UUXVMRWt6SEkwOXczUXxBQ3Jtc0ttbWlFcnFSdWtGUjZoN2MzYkRkOEg5ZlhUTzZYSmZ4OV84QW1neWJyNGhWQldRS3doMDA0RFR4bXl0NXo5ZnBrYjBOaVNkbnV3ZURreXpXcThYbWp4M2paMGVCNXN5Wlpram9LckY0cXVTTTJhdHNsaw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bluehost.com\/in%2Fcontact\">https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/in\/contact<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Or if you want to learn how to change <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/in\/tutorials\/how-to-change-domain-name-in-wordpress\">domain name in WordPress<\/a>, read through our detailed blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What do you do when you want to manage multiple domain names from one hosting account.
