A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain name and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while browsing world wide web. As an example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on a different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for pupils aside from the main school site. If you use subdomains instead of subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Each and every cloud hosting package which we supply will allow you to create numerous subdomains with no more than a few clicks in your web hosting CP. They're going to be listed in the area in which you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, so that you can very easily keep an eye on all of them. Additionally, you can access many functions for any one of the subdomains through right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or modify their DNS records, access the site files, and a lot more. While creating a new subdomain, you'll also have lots of options that you can choose from - determine the default access folder, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or choose if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The amount of subdomains you will have is completely up to you since we haven't limited this feature for any of our plans.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You are able to create as many subdomains as you would like with any of our semi-dedicated servers since we haven't set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting CP will enable you to add a new subdomain with a few clicks and you'll be able to access a number of advanced features during the process - change the default access folder, choose the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones that are offered in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and much more. Even if you create a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of them with ease since they are going to be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For each of them, you can even access the website files or see logs and usage stats through instant access buttons.
