It is possible for a teacher or school to let students signup for hosting accounts using subdomains of a teacher or school’s primary domain name rather than having students purchase their own domains.

For example: student1.teacherdomain.com, student1.departmentdomain.net

Here are the instructions for setting up this process:

1. Contact support to let them know the domain name you want to use.
2. Have students signup and choose “I have a school subdomain”
3. Get the following information from each student:
   1. Subdomain name they choose
   2. IP address of their new account (found in welcome email sent to the student)
4. Create a subdomain in cPanel for each student.
5. In the Advanced DNS Zone Editor in cPanel,  create a record for each subdomain with the following information:
   1. Name: studentsubdomain.yourdomain.net
   2. TTL: 14400
   3. Type: A
   4. Address: Student IP address

This process will point the subdomain to the students cPanel account.

If a school purchases a domain name through us, we can assist with the setup process.
