Main Domain
HelioHost offers multiple domain options to its users.
- HelioHost subdomains
HelioHost offers free .heliohost.org subdomains for all of its users. These domains function completely like top-level domains, with the ability to host their own subdomains and to use custom mail servers.
- .TK domains
If you are looking to host your website under a more professional domain, we recommend checking out .TK domains. They offer completely free registration under the .tk domain. See below section for our nameserver listing, which will be necessary to configure your domain to point to your HelioHost account.
- Your domain
HelioHost is able to run on any domain you might already own. See below section for our nameserver listing, which will be necessary to configure your domain to point to your HelioHost account.
- Free TLDs
HelioHost is one of the rare free hosts to offer completely free domain registration. However, we only offer free TLDs to active users of our related forum site, HelioNet. To qualify you must fit the qualifications listed here.

Nameservers
In order to point your domain to our servers, your must configure its nameserver entries to match the two listed below:
ns1.heliohost.org
ns2.heliohost.org
Note that this configuration is only necessary for the second and third options above.
Subdomains
Unlike many other free web hosts, we offer unlimited subdomain usage on all our accounts. This means that you can create additional domains under your main domain. For example, if you have "example.heliohost.org" as your main domain you have the option to create a "two.example.heliohost.org" domain.

Parked & Add-On Domains
While most free web hosts restrict this offering, HelioHost offers unlimited parked and add-on domains to its users. Parked domains are domains that load the exact same content as your main domain, and are useful if you are looking to provide access to your site through multiple domains. Add-On domains are domains that load content that matches a subdomain of your main domain, and are useful if you want to host multiple websites under a single HelioHost account.
