A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain name and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Internet. As an illustration, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The main advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent 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 aside from the primary school website. If you work with subdomains instead of subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the sites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Each and every cloud hosting plan which we provide will permit you to create numerous subdomains with no more than a few mouse clicks within your hosting CP. They'll all 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 them all. In addition, you can access lots of functions for any one of the subdomains via right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the website files, plus much more. While setting up a new subdomain, you will also have a number of options that you can pick from - specify the default access folder, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or select if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. What number of subdomains you are going to have is completely up to you as we have not restricted this feature for any of our packages.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to create as many subdomains as you wish with any one of our semi-dedicated hosting plans because we haven't set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel will allow you to add a new subdomain with a few clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - change the default access folder, pick the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are offered in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, plus much more. Even if you create a huge amount of subdomains, you're going to be able to keep track of them with ease because they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any one of them, you can also access the web site files or check out logs and usage stats via instant access buttons.
