A subdomain is part of a web address that is under the main domain name, for instance name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain because 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 through a different company if you want to use a specific feature that isn't offered by your current service provider. An illustration for using a subdomain is if you have a company website as well as an online store under a subdomain where customers can acquire your products. You can even have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains as opposed to subfolders you are going to avoid any probability of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your sites separated is also less risky in the event of a script security breach.
Subdomains in Hosting
Through our hosting plans you'll be able to create subdomains with only a couple of mouse clicks in your website hosting Control Panel. All of them will be listed in one spot along with the domain addresses hosted in the account and arranged under their own domain to help make their administration simpler. Whatever the plan that you pick, you will be able to create numerous subdomains and set their access folder or set up custom error pages along the way. You will also have access to a lot of functions for any of them with only a click, so from the very same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. Unlike other companies, we haven't restricted the number of subdomains you can have even if you host only one domain in the account.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting haven't got a restriction for the amount of subdomains that you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes only a couple of mouse clicks in the Hepsia web hosting CP and in the process you can select the folder the subdomain will access if it will be different from the default one, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one provided you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. Once the subdomain is created, you'll be able to access logs and visitor statistics or you can quickly jump to the website files for it in the File Manager area through quick access buttons. All subdomains that you have within the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you will be able to find and manage every single one of them with ease.
