A subdomain is a website address, that is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and even hosted by a separate service provider. Using a subdomain can be quite practical if you want to have different websites which are related in some way. For example, you could have a web-based store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions and share thoughts concerning your products. The benefit of employing a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
Subdomains in Cloud Hosting
When you purchase a cloud hosting plan from our company, you will be able to create subdomains effortlessly through your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their number, so in case you host only one domain address in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for every single one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to choose the folder in the account that it'll open, set up personalized 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 addresses and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you'll be able to gain access to a lot of functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you get a semi-dedicated server plan, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you want as this feature is unrestricted. Since the website hosting plans are quite powerful, we've decided not to set any limit on the amount of subdomains. Our innovative Hepsia Control Panel will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of mouse clicks, to pick which folder it will access within the account, to activate FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up custom error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and more. To make it easier for you, all subdomains will be listed under their root domain, so you can easily see and handle them. With quick access links, you will also have the ability to open the site files for any one of the subdomains that you have or view its DNS records.
