A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Internet. For instance, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The main advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have an independent site 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 website, like an e-learning portal for college students in addition to the primary school site. If you are using subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

If you acquire a web hosting plan through our company, you will be able to create subdomains effortlessly via your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to limit their number, so even when you host only 1 domain name in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different site for every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to pick the folder inside the account that it'll 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 addresses and the subdomains that you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you will be able to gain access to numerous functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
