A subdomain is a part of a web address that's under the main domain, such as name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every subdomain could have its own website and records and can also be hosted through a different company if you need to use a feature which is not provided by your current provider. An illustration for using a subdomain is if you have a business website along with an online store under a subdomain where customers can acquire your products. In addition, you can have a forum where they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains as an alternative to subfolders you will avoid any probability of all websites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping your websites separated is less risky in the event of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting

If you purchase a cloud web hosting plan through us, you will be able to create subdomains effortlessly through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to limit their number, so in case you host only 1 domain in the account, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different site for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to pick the folder inside the account that it'll open, set up custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, select a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you will be able to gain access to many functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated servers haven't got a limit for the amount of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain within the account takes only a few mouse clicks within the Hepsia hosting CP and during the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it will be different from the default one, set up custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address as opposed to the shared server one in case you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. As soon as the subdomain is set up, you can access logs and visitor statistics or swiftly jump to the site files for it within the File Manager area using fast access buttons. All subdomains you've got within the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you'll be able to find and manage every single one of them easily.
