A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while browsing world wide web. As an illustration, many sites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for college students on top of the primary school website. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular site, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.
Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting
Each and every cloud web hosting plan which we offer will enable you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a few clicks in your web hosting Control Panel. They are going to be listed in the area in which you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, so that you're able to very easily keep track of them all. Furthermore, you can access lots of functions for any one of the subdomains using right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the website files, and a lot more. While creating a new subdomain, you're also going to have a number of options that you can pick from - specify the default access folder, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or choose if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The number of subdomains you will have is entirely up to you because we have not restricted this feature for any one of our packages.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will be able to create as many subdomains as you wish with any of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting as we haven't set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia web hosting CP will enable you to add a new subdomain with a few clicks and you can access a variety of advanced features during the process - change the default access folder, pick the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones that are available in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and much more. Even if you create a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of all of them with ease since they will be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For any of them, you can even access the site files or see logs and usage stats using fast access buttons.
