A subdomain is a part of a web address which is under the main domain name, for instance name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Each subdomain can have its own website and records and can even be hosted through a different company if you wish to use a certain feature that isn't provided by your current service provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a business website and an online store under a subdomain where clients can purchase your products. Additionally, you can have a forum where they can comment on the products and by using subdomains rather than subfolders you'll avoid any probability of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping the sites separated is less risky in the event of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

When you buy a shared hosting plan through us, you're going to be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to restrict their number, so even if you host only one domain in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different site for every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder in the account that it'll open, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, plus much more. All hosted domains and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you will be able to gain access to a lot of functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

Using our semi-dedicated server plans, you'll be able to create an unrestricted amount of subdomains for any of the domains that you add as hosted in the account. It will take a few clicks to set up a new subdomain and in the process you are going to be able to add custom-made error pages for it, choose if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP, change the default folder that it will access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains you've got in the account will be grouped under their root domain in alphabetical order and you'll be able to see and handle all of them with ease. Via instant access buttons and right-click menus you will also be able to jump to the site files inside the File Manager section or view logs, visitor stats and other information about any of your subdomains.
