A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Web. For example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for students aside from the main school website. If you use subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it will be more safe to have the websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting packages will permit you to create many subdomains for any domain address hosted inside your account without any difficulty. Provided that the main domain address is added, it requires 2 clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), set unique 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 easy access and administration. By right-clicking on any of them and by using quick access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that particular subdomain. We haven't set a restriction for the total amount of subdomains that you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you want.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you buy a semi-dedicated server package, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you'd like since this feature is unlimited. Considering that the web hosting plans are quite powerful, we have decided not to set any restriction on the amount of subdomains. Our state-of-the-art Hepsia CP will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of clicks, to select which folder it'll access within the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up unique error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and a lot more. For your convenience, all the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so you can easily see and handle them. Through fast access links, you'll have the ability to open the site files for any one of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
