A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain name and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. For example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for college students aside from the primary school website. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.
Subdomains in Shared Website Hosting
Our shared website hosting plans will enable you to set up hundreds of subdomains for every domain hosted in your account without any problem. If the main domain is added, it takes two mouse clicks to create a subdomain and pick 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 a lot more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and administration. By right-clicking on any of them and by using fast access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We have not set a limit for the amount of subdomains you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
You are able to create as many subdomains as you would like with any one of our semi-dedicated hosting plans as we haven't set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel will permit you to add a new subdomain with just a few mouse clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - modify the default access folder, select the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are provided in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and much more. Even if you create a great number of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of them with ease because they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any of them, you can also access the site files or check out logs and usage statistics through quick access buttons.
