A subdomain is a website url, that's under a main, or a root domain name. One example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and also hosted by a separate company. Employing a subdomain could be very beneficial if you wish to have different sites that are associated in some way. For example, you may have a web-based store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions and / or share views about your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
Subdomains in Website Hosting
If you acquire a website hosting plan through us, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to restrict their number, so in case you host only 1 domain address in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different website for each one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to choose the folder within the account that it'll open, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and a lot more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you will be able to gain access to numerous functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages don't have a limit for the number of subdomains that you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes only a few clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and in the process you can choose the folder the subdomain is going to access if it is going to be different from the default one, set up customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address instead of the shared server one if you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. As soon as the subdomain is set up, you'll be able to access logs and visitor stats or you can quickly jump to the website files for it in the File Manager area via instant access buttons. All subdomains that you have inside the account are going to be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and handle any of them effortlessly.
