A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain name, for instance name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every subdomain could have its own web site and records and can even be hosted with a different company if you wish to use a feature which isn't offered by your current service provider. An illustration for using a subdomain is if you have a business site as well as an online store under a subdomain where customers can acquire your products. You can even have a forum where they can talk about the products and by using subdomains rather than subfolders you are going to avoid any chance of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping your websites separated is also more secure in case there is a script security breach.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

With our shared hosting plans you will be able to create subdomains with just a few mouse clicks in your hosting CP. All of them are going to be listed in a single location along with the domains hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain to help make their management simpler. 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. You will also have access to a lot of functions for any of them with just a click, so from the exact same section in which you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other companies, we have not limited the number of subdomains which you can have even if you host just one domain address inside the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You will be able to create as many subdomains as you want with any of our Linux semi-dedicated packages because we have not set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia web hosting CP will allow you to add a new subdomain with only a few clicks and you'll be able to 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 that are provided in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, plus much more. Even if you set up a huge amount of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of all of them with ease since they will be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For every single one of them, you can also access the site files or see logs and usage statistics using quick access buttons.
