A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain name and you have most likely seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around 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 employing 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 website, such as an e-learning portal for students in addition to the main school website. If you use subdomains rather than subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the sites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting packages will allow you to set up numerous subdomains for every domain address hosted in your account without any problem. Assuming that the main domain is added, it will take two clicks to create a subdomain and pick what folder it's going to open (if different from the default one), set customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and control. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using instant access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that specific subdomain. We have not set a limit for the amount of subdomains which you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages haven't got a limit for the amount of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain within the account takes just a couple of clicks within the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and throughout the process you can select the folder the subdomain is going to access if it will be different from the default one, create tailor-made error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address instead of the shared server one in case you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. When the subdomain is created, you can access logs and visitor statistics or easily jump to the website files for it within the File Manager area by using fast access buttons. All subdomains that you have in the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you'll be able to find and control any one of them effortlessly.
