A subdomain is a website url, that is under a main, or a root domain. One example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and even hosted by a separate service provider. Using a subdomain can be very handy if you'd like to have different web sites which are related in some way. For instance, you may have a web-based store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain in order to provide means for your clients to ask questions and / or share thoughts concerning your products. The benefit of using a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Through our shared hosting plans you're going to be able to create subdomains with only a couple of mouse clicks in your web hosting CP. All of them are going to be listed in one spot together with the domain names hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain so as to make their managing a lot easier. Regardless of the plan that you choose, you'll be able to create many subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages during the process. Additionally, you'll have access to numerous functions for any of them with only a click, so from the very same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other companies, we have not restricted the number of subdomains which you can have even if you host just one domain within the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You’re able to create as many subdomains as you would like with any of our semi-dedicated hosting since we have not set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia hosting CP allows you to add a new subdomain with only a few clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - change the default access folder, pick 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 more. Even if you set up a huge amount of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of them with ease since they are going to be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For every single one of them, you are able to access the web site files or see logs and usage stats using fast access buttons.
