A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain name and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Internet. As an illustration, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of 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 website, like an e-learning portal for pupils in addition to the primary school website. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it's going to be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

When you purchase a web hosting package through us, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to restrict their number, so even when you host just one domain address in the account, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different site for every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to select the folder in the account that it'll 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, plus much more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to access many functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated plans do not have a set limit for the number of subdomains which you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes just a few mouse clicks within the Hepsia hosting CP and throughout the process you can choose the folder the subdomain is going to access if it is going to be different from the default one, create custom-made error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address as opposed to the shared server one if you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. When the subdomain is set up, you can access logs and visitor statistics or you can swiftly jump to the site files for it in the File Manager section by using instant access buttons. All subdomains you've got inside the account are going to be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you'll be able to find and control every single one of them with ease.
