A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain name and you've quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Web. For instance, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for college students on top of the main school website. If you use subdomains rather than subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Hosting

Each and every hosting plan that we offer will allow you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a few clicks inside your hosting Control Panel. They are going to be listed in the section in which you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, so that you're able to very easily keep an eye on all of them. In addition, you can access lots of functions for any one of the subdomains using right-click context menus - for example, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the website files, and a lot more. While setting up a new subdomain, you're also going to have lots of options that you can pick from - specify the default access folder, set customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or choose if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. What number of subdomains you are going to have is 100 % up to you because we have not limited this feature for any one of our packages.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated hosting plans do not have a restriction for the amount of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes only a couple of clicks in the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and during the process you can select the folder the subdomain is going to access if it is going to be different from the default one, create custom error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one provided you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. Once the subdomain is created, you'll be able to access logs and visitor stats or swiftly jump to the website files for it inside the File Manager section through quick access buttons. All subdomains you have within the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and manage any one of them with ease.
