A subdomain is a web address, that's under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain can be extremely practical if you'd like to have different websites that are associated in some way. As an example, you may have an on-line store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain so as to provide means for your customers to ask questions or share views regarding your products. The benefit of employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
Subdomains in Hosting
If you obtain a hosting package from our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their number, so even if you host just one domain name in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different website for every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to select the folder inside the account that it'll open, create 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 domains and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you are going to be able to gain access to many functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you buy a semi-dedicated server package, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you'd like as this feature is unrestricted. For the reason that the web hosting packages are very powerful, we've decided not to set any restriction on the number of subdomains. Our advanced Hepsia Control Panel will allow you to create a new subdomain with no more than a couple of clicks, to choose which folder it is going to access within the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to create unique error pages, to set a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and a lot more. For your convenience, all of the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, allowing you to effortlessly see and manage them. Using fast access links, you will also have the ability to open the website files for each of the subdomains that you have or view its DNS records.
