A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain name, for instance name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain could have its own web site and records and can also be hosted with a different provider if you want to use a specific feature which isn't offered by your current service provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a business site and an online store under a subdomain where customers can buy your products. Additionally, you can have a forum in which they can discuss the products and by using subdomains as opposed to subfolders you'll avoid any risk of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping your sites separated is less risky in case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

Using our web hosting plans you are going to be able to create subdomains with a few mouse clicks in your website hosting Control Panel. All of them will be listed in one location together with the domain addresses hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain to help make their administration simpler. No matter the plan that you select, you will be able to create hundreds of subdomains and set their access folder or set up custom error pages along the way. You will also have access to lots of functions for any of them with just a mouse click, so from the same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. As opposed to other providers, we haven't limited the amount of subdomains you can have even if you host one domain within the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You will be able to create as many subdomains as you want with any of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages because we have not set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel allows you to add a new subdomain with only a few mouse clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - replace the default access folder, pick the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are available in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and more. Even if you create a large number of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of all of them with ease because they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For every single one of them, you can even access the web site files or see logs and usage stats via fast access buttons.
