A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain and you have quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Internet. For instance, many sites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for students on top of the main school website. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific site, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Our cloud hosting packages will allow you to set up numerous subdomains for any domain hosted within your account without any difficulty. Assuming that the main domain address is added, it takes 2 clicks to create a subdomain and select what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for quick access and management. By right-clicking on any of them and by using instant access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a restriction for the total amount of subdomains that you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you get a semi-dedicated server plan, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want as this feature is unlimited. For the reason that the web hosting packages are rather powerful, we have decided not to set any restriction on the amount of subdomains. Our sophisticated Hepsia CP will allow you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of mouse clicks, to select which folder it'll access within the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to create unique error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and more. To make it easier for you, all of the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so you can very easily see and manage them. With instant access links, you'll be able to open the website files for any of the subdomains that you have or view its DNS records.
