A subdomain is a part of a web address that is under the main domain name, such as name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Each subdomain can have its own website and records and can even be hosted through a different company if you wish to use a feature which is not provided by your current service provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a business website as well as an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. In addition, you can have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by using subdomains as opposed to subfolders you are going to avoid any probability of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping your sites separated is more secure in case there is a script security breach.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

Through our web hosting packages you are going to be able to create subdomains with only a couple of mouse clicks in your hosting Control Panel. All of them will be listed in a single spot together with the domain names hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain so as to make their management easier. Whatever the plan that you choose, you're going to be able to create many subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages along the way. Additionally, you'll have access to lots of functions for any of them with only a click, so from the very same section in which you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. As opposed to other providers, we haven't restricted the number of subdomains that you can have even if you host just one domain address in the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You can create as many subdomains as you wish with any of our Linux semi-dedicated packages because we have not set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting CP will permit you to add a new subdomain with just a few mouse clicks and you can access a variety of advanced features during the process - replace the default access folder, choose 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, plus much more. Even if you set up a large number of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of them with ease since they are going to be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For each of them, you are able to access the website files or check out logs and usage statistics through quick access buttons.
