A subdomain is a website url, that is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and also hosted by a different provider. Employing a subdomain can be very useful if you want to have different websites that are related in some way. For instance, you could have an online store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your customers to ask questions or share views about your products. The advantage of employing a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the websites are going to be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

If you get a shared hosting plan from our company, you'll be able to create subdomains easily through your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to restrict their amount, so even if you host just one domain address in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can pick the folder inside the account that it's going to 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 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 access many functions for each one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

For any of them, you are able to access the website files or check out logs and usage stats through fast access buttons.
