A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain and you have almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Internet. As an example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for college students in addition to the main school site. If you use subdomains rather than subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

If you acquire a web hosting plan from our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains effortlessly via your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to restrict their amount, so in case you host just one domain address in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for each one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to select the folder in the account that it will open, create personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and much more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you'll be able to access numerous functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated servers haven't got a restriction for the number of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes only a few mouse clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and during the process you can choose the folder the subdomain is going to access if it is going to be different from the default one, create custom-made error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one in case you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. When the subdomain is created, you will be able to access logs and visitor stats or quickly jump to the site files for it in the File Manager area through instant access buttons. All subdomains you've got within the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and handle any of them effortlessly.
