A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while exploring world wide web. For example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for pupils in addition to the main school site. If you are using subdomains rather than subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the sites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Website Hosting

Every single shared website hosting plan which we offer will permit you to create many subdomains with no more than a couple of clicks within your hosting Control Panel. They're going to be listed in the section where you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, so that you can very easily keep tabs on them all. Additionally, you can access a lot of functions for any one of the subdomains via right-click context menus - for example, you can view or modify their DNS records, access the site files, and much more. While setting up a new subdomain, you will also have a number of options that you can pick from - define the default access folder, set unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or pick if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. What number of subdomains you'll have is totally up to you since we have not limited this feature for any of our packages.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated servers don't have a set limit for the amount of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes only a couple of clicks within the Hepsia hosting CP and throughout the process you can choose the folder the subdomain will access if it will be different from the default one, set up customized error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address instead of the shared server one provided 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 stats or you can swiftly jump to the website files for it within the File Manager area using quick access buttons. All subdomains you have inside the account are going to be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and handle any of them with ease.
