A subdomain is a part of a web address that's under the main domain name, for example name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own web site and records and can also be hosted with a different provider if you wish to use a certain feature which is not provided by your current provider. An 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. Additionally, you can have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by using subdomains instead of subfolders you will avoid any chance of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping the websites separated is also less risky in case of a script security breach.
Subdomains in Hosting
With our hosting packages you will be able to create subdomains with a few mouse clicks in your hosting CP. All of them are going to be listed in a single spot along with the domain addresses hosted in the account and arranged under their own domain to help make their management a lot easier. No matter the plan that you pick, you'll be able to create numerous subdomains and set their access folder or set up custom error pages along the way. You'll have access to lots of functions for any of them with just a click, so from the same section in which you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. Unlike other providers, we haven't limited the number of subdomains which you can have even if you host just one domain name inside the account.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You’re able to create as many subdomains as you would like with any one of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages since we haven't set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia hosting CP will permit you to add a new subdomain with just a few mouse clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - change the default access folder, pick 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, and more. Even if you create a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of them with ease because they will be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For any one of them, you can also access the website files or view logs and usage stats using quick access buttons.
