A subdomain is a web address, that's under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and even hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain could be very handy if you wish to have different web sites that are associated in some way. As an example, you could have a web-based store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain in order to provide means for your clients to ask questions and share views regarding your products. The benefit of employing a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
Subdomains in Hosting
When you buy a hosting package through us, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease via your Hepsia website hosting CP. We've decided not to restrict their amount, so in case you host only one domain address in the account, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for each and every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to select the folder in the account that it's going to open, create personalized 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 that you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you are going to be able to access lots of functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
