A subdomain is a website address, that is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and even hosted by a different company. Employing a subdomain can be quite beneficial if you wish to have different web sites which are related in some way. For example, you could have an online store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your customers to ask questions or share thoughts concerning your products. The best thing about using a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Hosting

Every hosting package we provide will permit you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a few clicks within your web hosting Control Panel. They are going to be listed in the section where you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, to help you effortlessly keep tabs on every one of them. Additionally, you can access many functions for any one of the subdomains using right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or change their DNS records, access the website files, plus much more. While creating a new subdomain, you are also going to have a number of options that you can choose from - specify the default access folder, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or choose if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The number of subdomains you are going to have is 100 % up to you since we have not restricted this feature for any of our packages.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

When you buy a semi-dedicated server plan, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish because this feature is unrestricted. Since the web hosting packages are rather powerful, we have decided not to put any limit on the number of subdomains. Our sophisticated Hepsia CP will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of clicks, to pick which folder it's going to access in 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 much more. For your convenience, all of the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so you can effortlessly see and control them. With instant access links, you'll be able to open the site files for any of the subdomains that you have or view its DNS records.
