A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain and you have probably seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Internet. For instance, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The main benefit of using a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for college students on top of the primary school website. If you use subdomains rather than subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the sites separate from each other.
Subdomains in Shared Website Hosting
Our shared website hosting packages will enable you to set up hundreds of subdomains for any domain hosted in your account without any problem. As long as the main domain is added, it takes two clicks to set up a subdomain and pick what folder it's going to open (if different from the default one), set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for easy access and management. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using quick access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a restriction for the total amount of subdomains which you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our Linux semi-dedicated hosting don't have a set limit for the amount of subdomains which you can create. Adding a new subdomain inside the account takes just a few clicks inside the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and during the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it will be different from the default one, set up custom-made error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one in case you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. Once the subdomain is created, you'll be able to access logs and visitor statistics or you can swiftly jump to the website files for it inside the File Manager area via fast access buttons. All subdomains that you've got within the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you're going to be able to find and control every single one of them with ease.
