A subdomain is a website url, that is under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and also hosted by a separate company. Employing a subdomain can be extremely useful if you want to have different web sites that are related in some way. As an example, you could have an online store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your clients to ask questions and share experiences about your products. The best thing about using a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Cloud Website Hosting

With our cloud website hosting packages you're going to be able to create subdomains with only a couple of clicks in your web hosting CP. All of them are going to be listed in one spot along with the domains hosted in the account and arranged under their own domain in order to make their management a lot easier. No matter the plan that you pick, you are going to be able to create many subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages in the process. You'll have access to lots of functions for any of them with only a mouse click, so from the same section in which you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. As opposed to other companies, we haven't restricted the number of subdomains that you can have even if you host one domain address inside the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our Linux semi-dedicated servers do not have a restriction for the number of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes just a few clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting CP and in the process you can pick the folder the subdomain is going to access if it is going to be different from the default one, set up tailor-made error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one if you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. When the subdomain is created, you will be able to access logs and visitor stats or you can quickly jump to the website files for it within the File Manager section via quick access buttons. All subdomains you've got in the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you're going to be able to find and control any one of them with ease.
