A subdomain is a website address, that is under a main, or a root domain name. One example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each 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 entirely independent and even hosted by a different service provider. Using a subdomain could be very useful if you want to have different sites which are related in some way. As an example, you can have a web-based store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions and / or share views regarding your products. The advantage of using a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Cloud Website Hosting

When you buy a cloud website hosting package through us, you'll be able to create subdomains effortlessly through your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to limit their amount, so in case you host only 1 domain name in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different website for every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to choose the folder inside the account that it's going to open, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and a lot more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you will be able to gain access to many functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You are able to create as many subdomains as you want with any one of our semi-dedicated hosting plans since we haven't set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting CP will permit you to add a new subdomain with only a few mouse clicks and you'll be able to access a number of advanced features during the process - change the default access folder, choose the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are offered in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and a lot more. Even if you set up a huge amount of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of all of them with ease because they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For every single one of them, you are able to access the website files or view logs and usage stats through quick access buttons.
