A subdomain is the part of the web address that's before a domain and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Internet. As an example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The best thing about employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for pupils on top of the main school site. If you are using subdomains instead of subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.
Subdomains in Web Hosting
Our web hosting packages will enable you to set up many subdomains for every domain address hosted inside your account without any hassle. Provided that the main domain name is added, it takes 2 clicks to set up a subdomain and select what folder it's going to open (if different from the default one), set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and management. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using instant access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that specific subdomain. We have not set a limit for the total number of subdomains which you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you want.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our Linux semi-dedicated service haven't got a set limit for the amount of subdomains which you can create. Adding a new subdomain inside the account takes only a couple of clicks in the Hepsia hosting CP and throughout the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it is going to be different from the default one, create tailor-made error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address as opposed to the shared server one if you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. As soon as the subdomain is set up, you can access logs and visitor stats or you can swiftly jump to the website files for it within the File Manager area by using fast access buttons. All subdomains that you've got in the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you are going to be able to find and handle any one of them with ease.
