A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain and you have almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Web. For instance, many sites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for students as well as the main school site. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it will be more safe to have the sites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Hosting

Our hosting packages will permit you to set up numerous subdomains for any domain address hosted inside your account without any problem. Assuming that the main domain is added, it takes 2 mouse clicks to set up a subdomain and pick what folder it will open (if different from the default one), set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and a lot more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and management. By right-clicking on any of them and by using quick access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that particular subdomain. We have not set a limit for the amount of subdomains that you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you get a semi-dedicated server plan, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you'd like since this feature is unrestricted. Considering that the web hosting plans are quite powerful, we've decided not to set any limit on the number of subdomains. Our state-of-the-art Hepsia CP will allow you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of clicks, to select which folder it's going to access within the account, to enable 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. To make it easier for you, all subdomains will be listed under their root domain, so that you can effortlessly see and manage them. With quick access links, you'll be able to open the site files for each of the subdomains that you have or view its DNS records.
