A subdomain is the part of the web address that's before a domain name and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Web. As an illustration, many websites like Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you're able to even host it on another server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for college students as well as the main school site. If you use subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular site, not mentioning that it's going to be more secure to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Hosting

If you get a hosting package through our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains easily via your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to limit their number, so even if you host just one domain name in the account, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different site for every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder within the account that it will open, set up custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, plus much more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you are going to be able to access many functions for every single one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our semi-dedicated packages do not have a limit for the number of subdomains that you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes only a couple of mouse clicks within the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and throughout the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it is going to 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 this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. As soon as the subdomain is created, you will be able to access logs and visitor statistics or you can easily jump to the site files for it inside the File Manager section through fast access buttons. All subdomains you've got inside the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you'll be able to find and handle any one of them with ease.
