A subdomain is a website url, which is 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 site and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Using a subdomain can be quite handy if you'd like to have different web sites that are related in some way. For instance, you could have a web-based store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain so as to offer means for your clients to ask questions or share experiences about your products. The advantage of using a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

When you obtain a shared hosting package through our company, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so even if you host only 1 domain address in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different site for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to pick the folder in the account that it's going to open, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to access many functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
