A subdomain is a website address, that is under a main, or a root domain. One example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and also hosted by a different provider. Using a subdomain can be very useful if you'd like to have different sites which are related in some way. For example, you could have an on-line store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your customers to ask questions and / or share thoughts concerning your products. The best thing about using a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

When you purchase a cloud hosting plan through us, you're going to be able to create subdomains easily through your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to limit 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 want and have a different site for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder within the account that it's going to open, set up custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, pick a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and a lot more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to gain access to many functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
