A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain and you've almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring world wide web. For example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for students in addition to the main school site. If you work with subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it will be more secure to have the websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Website Hosting

When you acquire a website hosting package from us, you will be able to create subdomains with ease via your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so even if you host only 1 domain name in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different site for each and every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you are able to choose the folder inside the account that it'll 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 domain names and the subdomains that you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you will be able to access lots of functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
