A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain name and you have most likely seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Internet. For example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. 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 pupils in addition to the main school website. If you are using subdomains rather than subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

When you obtain a cloud hosting package through us, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so even if you host only 1 domain in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different site for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to select the folder inside the account that it will open, create 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 domain names and the subdomains that you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to access a lot of functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages don't have a restriction for the number of subdomains that you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes just a few mouse clicks inside the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and throughout the process you can choose the folder the subdomain is going to access if it will be different from the default one, create custom-made error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address instead of the shared server one provided you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. After the subdomain is created, you'll be able to access logs and visitor statistics or easily jump to the website files for it within the File Manager area via quick access buttons. All subdomains that you have within the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and manage any one of them with ease.
