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 browsing the Internet. As an example, many websites like Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The main advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you are able to even host it on another server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for students in addition to the primary school site. If you are using subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

Our web hosting packages will permit you to create numerous subdomains for every domain name hosted inside your account without any problem. Assuming that the main domain is added, it will take 2 mouse clicks to create a subdomain and choose 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, plus much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for quick access and control. By right-clicking on any of them and by using fast access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that particular subdomain. We have not set a restriction for the total number of subdomains you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

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