A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain, for instance name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain given that the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every subdomain can have its own web site and records and can also be hosted through a different provider if you wish to use a specific feature that's not offered by your current provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website as well as an online store under a subdomain where customers can purchase your products. You can even have a forum where they can discuss the products and by using subdomains as opposed to subfolders you will avoid any risk of all sites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping the websites separated is less risky in the event of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

When you purchase a cloud hosting plan through our company, you will be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so even if you host only one domain in the account, you'll 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 are able to choose the folder inside the account that it'll open, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you will be able to access lots of functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

You’ll be able to create as many subdomains as you want with any of our Linux semi-dedicated servers as we have not set an upper limit for this feature. The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel will allow you to add a new subdomain with a few mouse clicks and you will be able to access a variety of advanced features during the process - modify the default access folder, choose 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, and a lot more. Even if you create a large number of subdomains, you're going to be able to keep track of them with ease as they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For each of them, you can even access the website files or view logs and usage stats via fast access buttons.
