A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain, such as name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own site and records and can even be hosted using a different company if you wish to use a certain feature that is not provided by your current provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website along with an online store under a subdomain where clients can buy 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'll avoid any risk of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping the websites separated is more secure in the event of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting plans will allow you to create countless subdomains for any domain hosted within your account without any hassle. As long as the main domain address is added, it will take 2 clicks to set up a subdomain and select what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for easy access and control. By right-clicking on any of them and by using instant access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that particular subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the total amount of subdomains that you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated servers haven't got a set limit for the amount of subdomains which you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes just a few clicks inside the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and throughout the process you can select the folder the subdomain is going to access if it will be different from the default one, set up custom error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address instead of the shared server one in case you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. Once the subdomain is set up, you will be able to access logs and visitor stats or swiftly jump to the website files for it in the File Manager area via instant access buttons. All subdomains that you've got within the account are going to be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you'll be able to find and manage any of them easily.
