A subdomain is a 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" element is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Each subdomain can have its own web site and records and can even be hosted with a different provider if you need to use a certain feature that is not offered by your current service provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a company site and an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. In addition, you can have a forum in which they can discuss the products and by employing subdomains rather than subfolders you will avoid any chance of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your websites separated is also more secure in the case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

If you obtain a cloud hosting plan through our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains effortlessly through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so in case you host just one domain name in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to pick the folder within the account that it's going to open, set up customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and much more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you are going to be able to access a lot of functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you buy a semi-dedicated server plan, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish because this feature is unlimited. Since the web hosting packages are rather powerful, we have decided not to put any cap on the number of subdomains. Our innovative Hepsia CP will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of mouse clicks, to choose which folder it will access inside the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to create unique error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and a lot more. For your convenience, all of the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so you can effortlessly see and handle them. With fast access links, you will also be able to open the site files for each of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
