A subdomain is a website address, that's under a main, or a root domain. One example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart 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 can be very beneficial if you want to have different sites which are related in some way. For example, you could have a web-based store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain so as to provide means for your clients to ask questions and / or share opinions about your products. The benefit of employing a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

When you get a web hosting package through our company, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease via your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to restrict their amount, so even when you host just one domain in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different website for each one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to pick the folder in the account that it will open, set up customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and much more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains that you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you'll be able to gain access to lots of functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You’ll be able to create as many subdomains as you would like with any of our semi-dedicated servers because we have not set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel will allow you to add a new subdomain with a few mouse clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - change the default access folder, select the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are available in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and more. Even if you set up a huge amount of subdomains, you are going to be able to keep track of all of them with ease as they are going to be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For each of them, you are able to access the web site files or see logs and usage stats through fast access buttons.
