Handling multiple domains from a single website hosting account is relatively easy but will require you to properly setup DNS and domain must be configured in the cPanel. There are two ways for adding multiple domains: "Parked" and "Add-on".

Parked Domains show the same website as your primary domain, and Add-on Domains can display an entirely different website, and also create an ftp account that you can use to manage the content for the Add-on domain. Addon domains are a kind of virtual hosting that enable you to manage multiple websites from one hosting account. Addon domains share the hosting account’s resources with the main domain.

For Parked Domains, go to Domains -> Parked Domains in the control panel, and add the domain(s)

For Add-on Domains, go to Domains -> Add-on Domains in the control panel, and add the additional domain(s)

For each one of the Add-on domains you will be ask to create a folder that is associated with the domain name, where you can upload the website content. The new folders will be created within the primary website folder.

 After setup make sure that the domain’s IP is set up properly. We can use cPanel’s advanced DNS Area Manager to evaluate and modify DNS details.

Once the A record is correctly configured, the DNS will start to propagate. This could also take some time. Once it’s done, the add-on domain will be openly available.
