A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain, for instance name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every subdomain can have its own site and records and can even be hosted using a different provider if you need to use a feature that is not provided by your current service provider. One example for using a subdomain is if you have a company site along with an online store under a subdomain where clients can purchase your products. In addition, you can have a forum where they can talk about the products and by using subdomains rather than subfolders you are going to avoid any probability of all websites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your websites separated is more secure in case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

If you acquire a web hosting plan from us, you will be able to create subdomains easily through your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to limit their amount, so even if you host just one domain name in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different site for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to choose 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, plus much more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you will be able to gain access to many functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
