A subdomain is a web address, that's under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and also hosted by a separate company. Using a subdomain could be very beneficial if you want to have different websites which are related in some way. For instance, you could have an on-line store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your customers to ask questions or share opinions about your products. The main advantage of employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Shared Web Hosting

If you buy a shared web hosting plan through our company, you are going to be able to create subdomains easily using your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We've 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 would like and have a different site for every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to pick the folder within the account that it will open, set up personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick 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 lots of functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
