A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain name and you've quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Internet. As an example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent site and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for college students aside from the main school website. If you are using subdomains instead of subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular site, not mentioning that it will be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Shared Website Hosting

Our shared website hosting plans will enable you to create numerous subdomains for any domain hosted inside your account without any difficulty. If the main domain is added, it takes two clicks to set up a subdomain and select what folder it will open (if different from the default one), set unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and control. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using fast access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a restriction for the total number of subdomains that you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you acquire a semi-dedicated server package, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you would like since this feature is unrestricted. Since the hosting plans are very powerful, we have decided not to put any limit on the number of subdomains. Our innovative Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to create a new subdomain with no more than a few mouse clicks, to choose which folder it will access in the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up custom error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and a lot more. To make it easier for you, all of the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, allowing you to effortlessly see and manage them. With quick access links, you'll also have the ability to open the site files for any one of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
