A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain name and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. As an example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you can even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for students aside from the main school website. If you work with subdomains rather than subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the sites separate from one another.
Subdomains in Cloud Hosting
If you obtain a cloud hosting plan through our company, you'll be able to create subdomains effortlessly via your Hepsia website hosting CP. We've decided not to limit their number, so in case you host only one domain in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different website for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder within the account that it will open, set up personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose 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 will be able to gain access to lots of functions for every single one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting packages don't have a set limit for the amount of subdomains which you can create. Adding a new subdomain within the account takes only a few mouse clicks in the Hepsia hosting CP and in the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it will be different from the default one, create custom-made error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one provided you have added such an upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. As soon as the subdomain is created, you can access logs and visitor statistics or swiftly jump to the site files for it in the File Manager section via instant access buttons. All subdomains that you have inside the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you will be able to find and control any of them effortlessly.
