A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while exploring world wide web. For example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The main advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you're able to even host it on another server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for students as well as the primary school website. If you work with subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular site, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting

Our cloud web hosting packages will enable you to set up hundreds of subdomains for any domain address hosted inside your account without any hassle. As long as the main domain is added, it will take 2 clicks to set up a subdomain and choose what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), set unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for quick access and administration. By right-clicking on any of them and by using quick access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that specific subdomain. We have not set a limit for the total number of subdomains which you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You can create as many subdomains as you would like with any one of our semi-dedicated servers because we haven't set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia web hosting CP allows you to add a new subdomain with only a few clicks and you are going to 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 which are available in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and much more. Even if you create a large number of subdomains, you are going to be able to keep track of all of them with ease since they are going to be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any one of them, you are able to access the website files or check out logs and usage stats through instant access buttons.
