A subdomain is a website address, that's under a main, or a root domain name. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a separate provider. Using a subdomain can be quite useful if you'd like to have different sites that are related in some way. As an example, you can have an online store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to offer means for your customers to ask questions and / or share thoughts regarding your products. The advantage of employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the websites are going to be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

If you obtain a cloud hosting package from our company, you are going to be able to create subdomains effortlessly through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to restrict their number, so even if you host just one domain in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different website for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can choose the folder in the account that it's going to 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, 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'll be able to access many functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
