A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain name, for instance name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain given that the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own web site and records and can also be hosted through a different company if you wish to use some feature which isn't provided by your current provider. An illustration for using a subdomain is if you have a company site and an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. Additionally, you can have a forum where they can discuss the products and by employing subdomains as an alternative to subfolders you are going to avoid any probability of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your websites separated is also less risky in case of a script security breach.
Subdomains in Cloud Website Hosting
With our cloud website hosting plans you will be able to create subdomains with a few clicks in your hosting CP. All of them are going to be listed in a single location along with the domains hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain so as to make their managing simpler. Regardless of the plan that you select, you'll be able to create many subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages in the process. Additionally, you will have access to lots of functions for any of them with only a mouse click, so from the very same section in which you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other companies, we have not limited the amount of subdomains you can have even if you host one domain address inside the account.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you purchase a semi-dedicated server plan, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish as this feature is unlimited. Since the website hosting packages are quite powerful, we have decided not to set any cap on the number of subdomains. Our innovative Hepsia CP will permit you to create a new subdomain with no more than a few mouse clicks, to choose which folder it is going to access inside the account, to activate FrontPage Extensions for it, to create custom error pages, to set a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and many more. To make it easier for you, all subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so that you can easily see and control them. Through quick access links, you'll also have the ability to open the website files for any of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
