A subdomain is a website address, that is under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and even hosted by a separate company. Using a subdomain can be very practical if you'd like to have different websites that are related in some way. For example, you could have a web-based store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions or share thoughts about your products. The main advantage of employing a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the sites are going to be separated, so you're able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

If you purchase a shared hosting package through us, you're going to be able to create subdomains effortlessly through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to limit their amount, so even if you host just one domain name in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different site for every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder within the account that it'll open, set up customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and a lot more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you'll be able to gain access to numerous functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you buy a semi-dedicated server package, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you'd like since this feature is unlimited.
