A subdomain is a website address, that is under a main, or a root domain name. An example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and even hosted by a different provider. Using a subdomain can be very useful if you want to have different websites that are related in some way. For instance, you may have a web-based store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain so as to provide means for your clients to ask questions and share views about your products. The benefit of using a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the web sites are going to be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

If you get a shared hosting plan through our company, you'll be able to create subdomains easily using your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have 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 want and have a different site for every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to pick the folder within the account that it will open, set up personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, select a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and much more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to gain access to lots of functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to create as many subdomains as you wish with any of our semi-dedicated plans since we haven't set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia web hosting CP will permit you to add a new subdomain with just a few clicks and you are going to be able to access a number of advanced features during the process - replace the default access folder, choose 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 a lot more. Even if you set up a huge amount of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of them with ease since they will be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For every single one of them, you can also access the website files or see logs and usage statistics via quick access buttons.
