A subdomain is a website url, which is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain can be quite beneficial if you wish to have different sites that are related in some way. For example, you may have an on-line store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your customers to ask questions or share opinions about your products. The main advantage of using a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting
Our cloud web hosting plans will enable you to create numerous subdomains for any domain name hosted in your account without any problem. Assuming that the main domain is added, it will take 2 mouse clicks to set up a subdomain and pick what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and a lot more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for easy access and control. 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 restriction for the total number 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
You can create as many subdomains as you want with any of our Linux semi-dedicated services since we have not set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia web hosting CP allows you to add a new subdomain with a few clicks and you will be able to access a variety of advanced features during the process - replace 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, plus much more. Even if you set up a great number of subdomains, you are going to be able to keep track of them with ease as they will be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For every single one of them, you can even access the web site files or see logs and usage statistics using fast access buttons.
