A subdomain is a website address, that's under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be totally independent and also hosted by a separate company. Using a subdomain can be very handy if you'd like to have different web sites which are related in some way. As an example, you may have an on-line store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain in order to provide means for your clients to ask questions and share opinions regarding your products. The benefit of using a subdomain as opposed to 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 Cloud Hosting

When you purchase a cloud hosting plan from our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains effortlessly using your Hepsia website hosting CP. We've decided not to restrict their amount, so in case you host only one domain address in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different website for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can pick the folder in the account that it will open, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you will be able to gain access to lots of functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you get a semi-dedicated server plan, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want since this feature is unrestricted. Considering that the website hosting packages are rather powerful, we have decided not to put any limit on the number of subdomains. Our innovative Hepsia Control Panel will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of mouse clicks, to choose which folder it's going to access within the account, to activate FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up unique error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and many more. For your convenience, all the subdomains will be listed under their root domain, so that you can easily see and control them. With fast access links, you'll be able to open the website files for each of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
