A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain name, for example name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own website and records and can also be hosted through a different company if you wish to use a certain feature which isn't offered by your current provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a company site along with an online store under a subdomain where customers can purchase your products. You can also have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains as an alternative to subfolders you will avoid any chance of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping the websites separated is more secure in case of a script security breach.
Subdomains in Cloud Website Hosting
When you obtain a cloud website hosting plan through our company, you will be able to create subdomains with ease through your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so even if you host only 1 domain in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different site for every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to select the folder in the account that it's going to open, set up personalized 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 names and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you are going to be able to gain access to a lot of functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
You’re able to create as many subdomains as you want with any one of our semi-dedicated plans since we have not set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel allows you to add a new subdomain with a few clicks and you can access a number of advanced features during the process - replace the default access folder, select the IP address the subdomain will use from the shared and dedicated ones which are offered in your account, activate FrontPage Extensions, add an SSL certificate, and more. Even if you create a huge amount of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of all of them with ease as they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any one of them, you are able to access the web site files or see logs and usage statistics using quick access buttons.
