A subdomain is a website url, that's under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain name, 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 part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and also hosted by a different provider. Using a subdomain can be extremely useful if you want to have different web sites that are connected in some way. As an example, you may have a web-based store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain so as to provide means for your clients to ask questions and share thoughts about your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the websites are going to be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
Subdomains in Shared Hosting
When you buy a shared hosting plan through us, you'll be able to create subdomains easily through your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their number, so in case you host just one domain in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different site for each one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to select the folder in the account that it will open, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, plus much more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains that you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to gain access to lots of functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Through our semi-dedicated server plans, you're going to be able to create an unrestricted number of subdomains for any of the domains which you add as hosted in the account. It will take a few mouse clicks to set up a new subdomain and during the process you will be able to add custom error pages for it, decide if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP address, change the default folder that it'll access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains you've got inside the account are going to be grouped under their root domain from a to z and you'll be able to see and control all of them with ease. Through fast access buttons and right-click menus you'll also be able to jump to the site files in the File Manager area or check logs, visitor statistics and other information about any one of your subdomains.
