A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain name, for example 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 only "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own web site and records and can also be hosted through a different company if you wish to use a specific feature that's not offered by your current provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a business website along with an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. Additionally, you can have a forum in which they can comment on the products and by using subdomains as an alternative to subfolders you are going to avoid any risk of all websites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your sites separated is less risky in the case of a script security breach.
Subdomains in Shared Hosting
When you obtain a shared hosting plan from us, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to limit their amount, so even if you host only 1 domain name in the account, you're 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'll be able to choose the folder inside the account that it'll open, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, plus much more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains that you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you are going to be able to access lots of functions for every single one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You will be able to create as many subdomains as you want with any of our Linux semi-dedicated packages since we have not set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting CP will permit you to add a new subdomain with just a few clicks and you can access a variety 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 a lot more. Even if you set up a huge amount of subdomains, you're going to be able to keep track of all of them with ease since they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any one of them, you are able to access the website files or check out logs and usage statistics via fast access buttons.
