A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain name, such as name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain could have its own site and records and can even be hosted using a different provider if you want to use some feature which is not provided by your current service provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website and an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. You can also have a forum where they can comment on the products and by employing subdomains rather than subfolders you will avoid any probability of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping your websites separated is less risky in case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Our cloud hosting plans will permit you to create many subdomains for any domain address hosted within your account without any problem. If the main domain name is added, it will take two mouse clicks to set up a subdomain and select what folder it's going to open (if different from the default one), set unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains will 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 quick access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We have not set a limit for the total amount of subdomains that you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can create as many subdomains as you wish with any of our semi-dedicated plans because we haven't set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel will enable you to add a new subdomain with only a few mouse clicks and you'll be able to access a variety of advanced features during the process - replace the default access folder, pick the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones that are available in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and much more. Even if you create a large number of subdomains, you're going to be able to keep track of all of them with ease since they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For each of them, you are able to access the web site files or see logs and usage stats via fast access buttons.
