A subdomain is a part of a web address that is under the main domain name, for example name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every single subdomain could have its own website and records and can even be hosted through a different provider if you want to use a certain feature that's not offered by your current provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website along with an online store under a subdomain where customers can acquire your products. Additionally, you can have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains rather than subfolders you will avoid any chance of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping the sites separated is also less risky in case of a script security breach.

No matter the plan that you choose, you'll be able to create many subdomains and set their access folder or set up custom error pages along the way. Additionally, you'll have access to lots of functions for any of them with just a click, so from the very same section in which you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other providers, we haven't limited the number of subdomains that you can have even if you host only one domain in the account.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you buy a semi-dedicated server plan, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like since this feature is unrestricted. For the reason that the website hosting plans are rather powerful, we have decided not to put any limit on the amount of subdomains. Our sophisticated Hepsia Control Panel will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a few clicks, to choose which folder it is going to access in the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up custom error pages, to create a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and more. To make it easier for you, all subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so you can effortlessly see and manage them. Using instant access links, you'll also have the ability to open the website files for any one of the subdomains that you have or check out its DNS records.
