A subdomain is a part of a web address that is under the main domain, for instance name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every subdomain can have its own website and records and can also be hosted using a different company if you want to use a certain feature that's not provided by your current service provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a business site and an online store under a subdomain where clients 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'll avoid any chance of all websites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping the websites separated is more secure in case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Cloud Website Hosting

When you buy a cloud website hosting plan through our company, you will be able to create subdomains easily through your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to limit their number, so in case you host only one domain address in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different website for each one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder within the account that it will open, set up personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you will 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 Hosting

You can create as many subdomains as you wish with any one of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting since we haven't set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia hosting CP will enable 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 that are provided in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and more. Even if you set up a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of them with ease because they will be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For each of them, you can even access the web site files or see logs and usage stats through fast access buttons.
