A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain, such as name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own site and records and can also be hosted through a different company if you wish to use a feature that isn't provided by your current service provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website as well as an online store under a subdomain where clients can buy your products. You can even have a forum in which they can comment on the products and by using subdomains instead of subfolders you'll avoid any probability of all websites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping the websites separated is more secure in case of a script security breach.
Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting
When you acquire a cloud web hosting package through our company, you will be able to create subdomains with ease via your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to limit their number, so even if you host only one 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 each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder within the account that it will open, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, select a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and a lot more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains that you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you'll be able to gain access to lots of functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
Using our semi-dedicated server plans, you're going to be able to create an unrestricted number of subdomains for any one of the domains which you add as hosted in the account. It takes a few mouse clicks to create a new subdomain and throughout the process you'll be able to add unique error pages for it, select if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP address, change the default folder that it will access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains you have within the account will be grouped under their root domain in alphabetical order and you're going to be able to see and manage all of them without difficulty. Using instant access buttons and right-click menus you will also be able to jump to the website files inside the File Manager section or check logs, visitor statistics and other information about any of your subdomains.
