A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain name and you have almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. As an example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The best thing about employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you can even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for students aside from the main school site. If you work with subdomains instead of subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the sites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Website Hosting

Every single website hosting plan we supply will enable you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a few mouse clicks inside your website hosting CP. They will all be listed in the section where you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, so that you're able to easily monitor all of them. Additionally, you can access a lot of functions for any one of the subdomains via right-click context menus - as an example, you can view or change their DNS records, access the website files, and a lot more. While setting up a new subdomain, you'll also have a number of options that you can choose from - specify the default access folder, create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or decide if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The number of subdomains you'll have is 100 % up to you as we have not restricted this feature for any of our plans.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you acquire a semi-dedicated server package, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you want as this feature is unrestricted. Since the website hosting packages are quite powerful, we have decided not to put any restriction on the number of subdomains. Our innovative Hepsia CP will allow you to create a new subdomain with no more than a few clicks, to select which folder it will access within the account, to activate FrontPage Extensions for it, to create unique error pages, to set a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and many more. For your convenience, all of the subdomains will be listed under their root domain, allowing you to easily see and control them. Using quick access links, you'll also have the ability to open the site files for any of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
