A parked domain is what cPanel refers to as a domain that you want to add to your web hosting account that does nothing other than point to another published web site that you have on your account. Common uses for parked domains include providing additional domains that a specific web site resolves to, or just saving domains for use in a future project or endeavor.

An add-on domain is what cPanel refers to as a domain that you want to add to your web hosting account with the intent of either running a separate web site or running separate email accounts. In other words, you can run multiple web sites on your web hosting account provided that you have enough ad-on domains to support those web sites.
