Changing Domain?

[carclub2]

I was making a website for someone using x10 free hosting. Since it was for a project I went ahead and started it using the free domain, but he has his own domain/url. I was wondering if there was a way I could switch over to using his?

You can use the 'add-on domains' option in CPanel, set the X10 NS to the domain and then adding the actual domain to your account.

if you add it to the account as a 'Parked' domain it will show (load) the same page(s) as the current account's x10hosting domain

Interesting, I thought domain parking is to kind of reserve a domain name in a way..

In this case it means you park a domain you already own to your account to use, it's just what cPanel decided to call that option I guess, effectively parked domains in cPanel are alias domains, as all parked domains as well as the main domain would show the same content.

In a way you are right though, some registrars offers you to "park" the domain with them if you don't currently have a page for it, by pointing them to an ad page of theirs. As an affiliate program kinda, you get some small amount for every signup that comes through your parked domains address.
