Let’s make this clear, this is two different things. If you are beginner and not sure how to manage domain ownership, hopefully this simple article will give you some help.

1. Addon domain name is where you add domain name to your hosting account and host the new website in existing hosting plan and run it as a uniquely separate website. It’s not necessary registered via Justhost, it can be sitting at other domain registrar. What you need is to change the DNS to point to Justhost DNS name server and wait for domain propagation. Later add it to your cPanel account and manage the website from there. This mean your domain stay at existing registrar and the website is hosting with selected web hosting company.

2. Domain transfer is referring to change the registrar from the old registrar to the new winning registrar. The transfer process usually take 7 days to complete, you will need to unlock it from old registrar. Later initiate the transfer and enter the authorization key to approve it. Next, check the email confirmation for domain transfer and confirm it, and wait for the transfer process to be initiated. Once completed, the domain will be move to new winning registrar.

Note that registrar transfer are free and you can do it from your Justhost control panel and under domain transfer section as screenshot below

If you are going to point existing domain name to your Justhost hosting account, and late host the website with Justhost hosting, then you will need to change the domain name server to Justhost DNS name server and wait for domain propagation to complete. Once it’s complete, your domain will be pointed to Justhost hosting and website will be running from Justhost server as well.

if you already transfer domain to Justhost hosting, please login to your domain control panel and make sure the domain DNS is pointed to Justhost domain name server as well. By default it will be using your previous DNS name server, thus it’s necessary to change it to Justhost DNS.

Justhost name server DNS information:

How about Justhost reseller plan with private name server?
Unless you are using their reseller hosting with private name server, in this case your domain need to point to your own private name server. And this private DNS need to setup to point to your reseller web hosting plan via the child DNS setting. The reseller domain hosting will be like this

1. Your domain should use the private name server for example, ns1.yourreseller .com & ns2.yourreseller .com
2. And later setup child DNS for this ns1.yourreseller .com & ns2.yourreseller .com to point to their respective IP address.
3. Wait for domain propagation and your domain will be pointed to your reseller plan via private name servers.

For sure, Justhost hosting is one great web hosting bargain. They use three DNS servers instead of the regular two DNS servers. The advantage is more reliable DNS service and less percentage of downtime or failure.
