An addon domain allows you to control and publish more than one domain name from a single control panel. Although the websites are controlled from the same control
panel, they operate independently from each other. However, all sites share the resources of the hosting service being used.
Warning: The NS addresses of the domain name you want to add must be pointed to the hosting account.
How to Add an Addon Domain (Add-on Domain)?
For a domain name to be added as an Addon Domain, the Nameserver addresses must first be pointed to the server. The Addon Domain section is available in cPanel. Log in to this section. In newer cPanel versions, it has been renamed Addon
Domains.

When you log in, you will see a page like the one below. You need to fill in the required fields on this page.

New Domain Name: Enter the add-on domain name you want to add here.
Subdomain/FTP Username: This is the username that will be used to connect to the FTP account of the domain you added. cPanel fills this in automatically, but you can change it if you wish.
Document Root: This is the directory on FTP where you will install the site for your add-on domain. cPanel will fill it in automatically in the format public_html/directoryname. You can change the directory name if you wish.
Password: Set the FTP password for the domain you added. Do not choose a simple password. You can use the Password Generator for a strong password.
Password (Again): Re-enter the password you created for verification.
When you complete these operations, you will see that a file path has been created on FTP under the name of the Document Root you created. Now you can enter this directory and proceed with the installation for your add-on domain.
Good luck.
