A subdomain is a part of a web address that is under the main domain name, such as name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain given that the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every subdomain could have its own website and records and can also be hosted using a different provider if you want to use a certain feature that isn't offered by your current service provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a business site along with an online store under a subdomain where customers can acquire your products. Additionally, you can have a forum in which they can discuss 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 the sites separated is less risky in case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

Our web hosting plans will enable you to set up hundreds of subdomains for any domain name hosted within your account without any hassle. If the main domain name is added, it will take 2 clicks to create a subdomain and pick 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, and more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and administration. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using instant access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that particular subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the total number of subdomains you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You are able to create as many subdomains as you would like with any one of our semi-dedicated hosting as we have not set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel will permit 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, select the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones that are offered in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and more. Even if you set up a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of all of them with ease because they are going to be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For any one of them, you are able to access the web site files or view logs and usage stats via quick access buttons.
