A subdomain is the part of the web address that's before a domain and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. As an example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The best thing about employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for students aside from the primary school website. If you use subdomains instead of subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Hosting

Our hosting packages will allow you to set up many subdomains for every domain address hosted inside your account without any problem. If the main domain name is added, it will take two clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for quick access and management. By right-clicking on any of them and by using instant access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the total amount of subdomains that you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

With our semi-dedicated server plans, you are going to be able to create an unrestricted amount of subdomains for any of the domains you add as hosted in the account. It will take a few clicks to create a new subdomain and in the process you're going to be able to to add unique error pages for it, pick if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP, change the default folder that it will access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains you have inside the account will be grouped under their root domain in alphabetical order and you're going to be able to see and handle all of them without difficulty. By using quick access buttons and right-click menus you will also be able to jump to the site files within the File Manager section or see logs, visitor stats and other information about any one of your subdomains.
