This guide explains how to add a site (your-site2.com) or a subdomain (xxx.your-site.com) to your existing hosting.

During this multisite / multidomain (virtual host) management, the disk space and resources of your hosting will be divided between your sites/subdomains.

Remark: if the 20 websites offered by the web hosting service are used, you can order additional sites as explained in this guide: https://faq.infomaniak.com/2197
