A subdomain is a website url, that is under a main, or a root domain name. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and also hosted by a separate provider. Using a subdomain can be very practical if you wish to have different sites which are related in some way. As an example, you may have a web-based store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain in order to provide means for your customers to ask questions and / or share opinions concerning your products. The benefit of employing a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the websites are going to be separated, so you're able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Website Hosting

When you buy a website hosting plan through us, you are going to be able to create subdomains easily via your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to limit their amount, so even if you host only 1 domain name in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for each one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to choose the folder within the account that it's going to open, create personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and a lot more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you'll be able to gain access to numerous functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated packages don't have a restriction for the amount of subdomains that you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes just a couple of clicks inside the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and throughout the process you can pick the folder the subdomain is going to access if it will be different from the default one, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address as opposed to the shared server one if you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. Once the subdomain is created, you'll be able to access logs and visitor statistics or you can quickly jump to the site files for it inside the File Manager area through fast access buttons. All subdomains you've got inside the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you're going to be able to find and handle any one of them effortlessly.
