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 site and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a different provider. Employing a subdomain can be extremely practical if you'd like to have different sites that are connected in some way. For instance, you can have an online store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions and share experiences concerning your products. The best thing about using a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.
Subdomains in Cloud Website Hosting
When you buy a cloud website hosting package through our company, you'll be able to create subdomains with ease using your Hepsia website hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their number, so in case you host only one domain in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder inside the account that it will open, set up personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, select a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, plus much more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains that you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you will be able to gain access to a lot of functions for every single one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
