A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain name and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while browsing world wide web. As an example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for students in addition to the primary school website. If you work with subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it will be more safe to have the sites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

When you obtain a shared hosting package through us, you are going to be able to create subdomains easily through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to limit their number, so even when you host only 1 domain in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can choose the folder within the account that it's going to open, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, select a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and much more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains that you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you'll be able to access many functions for every single one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you acquire a semi-dedicated server plan, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish because this feature is unlimited. Considering that the website hosting plans are very powerful, we've decided not to put any limit on the amount of subdomains. Our state-of-the-art Hepsia Control Panel will permit you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of clicks, to pick which folder it'll access inside the account, to activate FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up unique error pages, to set a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and more. To make it easier for you, all the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, allowing you to very easily see and handle them. Using quick access links, you will also have the ability to open the website files for each of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
