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 site and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a separate provider. Employing a subdomain can be extremely handy if you want to have different web sites which are associated in some way. As an example, you could have an online store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain in order to offer means for your customers to ask questions and / or share thoughts about your products. The best thing about using a subdomain as opposed to 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 Web Hosting
If you acquire a web hosting plan through our company, you will be able to create subdomains effortlessly through your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so even when you host just one domain name in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different website for every single one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can choose the folder within the account that it's going to 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, plus much more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you are going to be able to access many functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated plans don't have a set limit for the amount of subdomains which you can create. Adding a new subdomain within the account takes only a couple of mouse clicks within the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and during the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it is going to be different from the default one, create tailor-made error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one if you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. After the subdomain is set up, you can access logs and visitor statistics or you can quickly jump to the website files for it inside the File Manager area by using instant access buttons. All subdomains you have in the account are going to be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and handle every single one of them easily.
