A subdomain is a website address, which is under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and even hosted by a separate service provider. Using a subdomain can be extremely useful if you want to have different sites that are associated in some way. As an example, you can have an online store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain so as to offer means for your customers to ask questions and / or share opinions about your products. The best thing about using a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the websites are going to be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

When you acquire a web hosting plan through our company, you'll be able to create subdomains effortlessly via your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to limit their amount, so even if you host only one domain name in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different site for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to select the folder in the account that it will open, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, select a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you are going to be able to gain access to numerous functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
