A subdomain is a part of a web address that is under the main domain, for example name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every subdomain could have its own site and records and can also be hosted with a different company if you need to use a certain feature that isn't provided by your current service provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a company site as well as an online store under a subdomain where customers can acquire your products. You can even have a forum where they can discuss the products and by employing subdomains as opposed to subfolders you will avoid any probability of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping the websites separated is more secure in the event of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Website Hosting

Every single website hosting plan that we offer will enable you to create many subdomains with no more than a few clicks inside your web hosting Control Panel. They're going to be listed in the area in which you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, to help you very easily keep tabs on them all. Furthermore, 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, and more. While setting up a new subdomain, you are also going to have a number of options that you can pick from - specify the default access folder, create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or decide if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The number of subdomains you will have is 100 % up to you since we have not restricted this feature for any one of our plans.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you purchase a semi-dedicated server plan, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you'd like because this feature is unrestricted. Considering that the website hosting plans are rather powerful, we've decided not to put any restriction on the number of subdomains. Our sophisticated Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to create a new subdomain with no more than a few clicks, to select which folder it's going to access inside the account, to activate FrontPage Extensions for it, to create unique error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and a lot more. To make it easier for you, all of the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so that you can effortlessly see and manage them. Through instant access links, you'll have the ability to open the site files for any of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
