A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain name and you have probably seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Internet. As an example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for students in addition to the primary school site. If you are using subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it will be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting plans will allow you to create countless subdomains for any domain address hosted inside your account without any problem. If the main domain is added, it requires two mouse clicks to set up a subdomain and pick what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and a lot more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and management. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using fast access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that particular subdomain. We have not set a restriction for the total number of subdomains which you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you want.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our Linux semi-dedicated packages don't have a set limit for the number of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain within the account takes only a few mouse clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting CP and throughout the process you can choose the folder the subdomain is going to access if it will be different from the default one, create customized error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address instead of the shared server one provided you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. When the subdomain is created, you will be able to access logs and visitor statistics or easily jump to the website files for it within the File Manager area via fast access buttons. All subdomains that you've got inside the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and control every single one of them with ease.
