Post Hosting multiple site

Hi, I'm was wondering if it is possible to purchase a hosting and host many site on it. For example I would like to have "test1.com", "test2.com", "test3.com" to be 3 different sites located in 3 different folder?

To make my question simple could I have "test1.com" to point to "public_html/testsite1/" and
"test2.com" to point to "public_html/testsite2/"?

EDIT : I would like to have arround 20 different folder with 20 different index.* and 20 different domain name...

Thanks for your help.

You can do this with a shared hosting plan. They wont each have their own cpanel's but you can have a bunch of different sites on it.

You can do this with the add-on domain feature of cpanel. This allows you to have multiple domains under your account and they will each show up in the folder structure you mentioned.

You will need at least the Deluxe plan to get 20 addon domains.

If you are going to have more, the Pro plan comes with 30.

You can view them all and place your order on this page:

You could definitely go with a reseller plan, I wasn't sure if you wanted to have each site with it's own cpanel or not, but you can host as many domains as you have space for on a reseller plan
