A subdomain is part of a web address that is under the main domain, such as name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Each subdomain can have its own website and records and can even be hosted using a different provider if you wish to use a specific feature that isn't offered by your current provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website and an online store under a subdomain where clients can buy your products. Additionally, you can have a forum where they can discuss the products and by using subdomains as an alternative to subfolders you'll avoid any chance of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your sites separated is also more secure in case there is a script security breach.

Subdomains in Website Hosting

When you use website hosting plans you'll be able to create subdomains with only a few clicks in your web hosting CP. All of them are going to be listed in a single place together with the domain names hosted in the account and arranged 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 hundreds of subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages in the process. 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. Unlike other providers, we haven't limited the number of subdomains that you can have even if you host only one domain address in the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like with any one of our semi-dedicated servers since we have not set a maximum limit for this feature. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel will enable you to add a new subdomain with only a few mouse clicks and you'll be able to access a variety of advanced features during the process - replace the default access folder, choose the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones that are offered in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, plus much more. Even if you create a huge amount of subdomains, you're going to be able to keep track of all of them with ease because they are going to be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any of them, you are able to access the website files or view logs and usage stats via instant access buttons.
