A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain name and you have almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while browsing world wide web. As an example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for college students aside from the primary school site. If you work with subdomains rather than subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Our cloud hosting packages will allow you to create hundreds of subdomains for every domain address hosted inside your account without any difficulty. Assuming that the main domain address is added, it takes two mouse clicks to create a subdomain and pick what folder it will open (if different from the default one), create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and administration. By right-clicking on any of them and by using quick access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the total number of subdomains that you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you buy a semi-dedicated server package, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want since this feature is unlimited. Since the website hosting packages are rather powerful, we've decided not to put any limit on the amount of subdomains. Our state-of-the-art Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to create a new subdomain with no more than a few mouse clicks, to pick which folder it will access inside the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to create unique error pages, to set a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and a lot more. For your convenience, all the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, allowing you to effortlessly see and handle them. Using fast access links, you'll also have the ability to open the website files for any of the subdomains that you have or check out its DNS records.
