A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain and you have quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring world wide web. As an illustration, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The main benefit 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 one could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for students in addition to the main school site. If you are using subdomains rather than subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the sites separate from each other.
Subdomains in Shared Web Hosting
With our shared web hosting packages you are going to be able to create subdomains with just a couple of clicks in your web hosting CP. All of them are going to be listed in one place together with the domain names hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain so as to make their managing simpler. No matter the plan that you select, you'll be able to create many subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages in the process. You will also have access to a lot of functions for any of them with just a mouse click, so from the very same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other providers, we have not limited the number of subdomains which you can have even if you host just one domain inside the account.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
You are able to create as many subdomains as you wish with any one of our semi-dedicated servers as we haven't set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel will enable you to add a new subdomain with just a few mouse clicks and you are going to be able to access a variety of advanced features during the process - replace the default access folder, select the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are available in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, plus much more. Even if you create a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of them with ease since they are going to be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any of them, you can even access the web site files or see logs and usage stats through quick access buttons.
