Mail - Add/edit/delete email accounts, mail forwarders and auto responders.

Logs - Latest Visitors, Detailed website statistics, raw access logs, error logs and bandwidth usage logs.

and much more.

A sub domain name can be a different website/page with its own unique content, but there is no new domain name. Instead, you use an existing domain name and add a new sub name in front of it. A sub domain name example can look like the following: http://blog.mydomain.com.au, http://help.mydomain.com.au (assuming you already host http://mydomain.com.au).

A parked domain is NOT a unique website. Instead, it is a masked forward to the primary domain name of your hosting account, much like a website alias. Parked domains are commonly used when:

• You need a place to park a domain for which you do not have a website.
• You have more than one domain that should lead/point to your primary domain name.
• You have common misspellings of your domain name that you have registered.

An addon domain is a second website, with its own unique content. This type of domain does require you to register the new domain name before you can host it. Therefore, if you want to host www.otherdomain.com.au under the same account this could be a solution, though first make sure you have enough disk-space and bandwidth allowance.

POP3 does not coordinate with the server. Messages marked as read/deleted/replied to in the mail application will not show up as such on the server. This means that future mail downloads with POP3 will show all messages as unread.

IMAP email access coordinates between the server and your mail application. Messages that have been read/deleted/replied to will show up as such, both on the server and in the mail application.

A CMS (Content Management System) website provides the user with built in administration tools to easily manage the web page content with very little or no understanding of web coding languages or third party software such as FTP. The user can manage their site using an Interent Browser and online connection 24x7. Wordpress is a good example of a CMS.

A static website is a hard coded web page that has no built in administrator tools and requiries knowledge of web coding and third party software such as FTP to manage the website. Updates are usually performed by the web developer when requested.
