A subdomain is a part of a web address that is 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 just "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own web site and records and can even be hosted through a different company if you wish to use a feature that isn't offered by your current service provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a business site as well as an online store under a subdomain where customers can purchase your products. In addition, you can have a forum where they can discuss the products and by employing subdomains as opposed to subfolders you are going to avoid any risk of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping your websites separated is less risky in case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Shared Website Hosting

Using our shared website hosting packages you are going to be able to create subdomains with only a couple of mouse clicks in your hosting Control Panel. All of them will be listed in a single place together with the domain addresses hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain to help make their administration simpler. Regardless of the plan that you pick, you are going to be able to create numerous subdomains and set their access folder or set up custom error pages along the way. You'll have access to many functions for any of them with only a mouse click, so from the exact same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other companies, we have not limited the number of subdomains which you can have even if you host one domain name in the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you buy a semi-dedicated server package, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you'd like simply because this feature is unlimited. Since the website hosting packages are very powerful, we have decided not to set any limit on the number of subdomains. Our advanced Hepsia CP will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of mouse clicks, to select which folder it will access inside the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up unique error pages, to set a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and many more. To make it easier for you, all subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so you can easily see and handle them. Through fast access links, you'll also be able to open the website files for each of the subdomains that you have or see its DNS records.
