A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain and you've almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. For example, many websites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for pupils in addition to the main school website. If you work with subdomains instead of subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it's going to be more secure to have the websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting plans will enable you to create many subdomains for every domain name hosted within your account without any problem. Assuming that the main domain name is added, it will take 2 mouse clicks to set up a subdomain and select what folder it's going to open (if different from the default one), set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and control. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using fast access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We have not set a restriction for the total number of subdomains which you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

With our semi-dedicated server plans, you will be able to create an unrestricted number of subdomains for any one of the domains that you add as hosted in the account. It's going to take a couple of mouse clicks to create a new subdomain and throughout the process you are going to be able to add custom error pages for it, select if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP, change the default folder that it's going to access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains which you have in the account are going to be grouped under their root domain in alphabetical order and you're going to be able to see and manage them without difficulty. Via instant access buttons and right-click menus you'll also be able to jump to the website files inside the File Manager area or see logs, visitor statistics and other info about any one of your subdomains.
