A subdomain is a website url, that's under a main, or a root domain name. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and even hosted by a different company. Using a subdomain could be very beneficial if you'd like to have different web sites that are connected in some way. For example, you may have an online store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your clients to ask questions and share opinions regarding your products. The benefit of using a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the sites are going to be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

When you obtain a web hosting package through our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their number, so in case you host only 1 domain address in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different site for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to choose the folder inside the account that it will open, set up customized 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 domains and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you will be able to access many functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
