A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Internet. For instance, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you can even host it on a different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for pupils as well as the primary school site. If you use subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific site, not mentioning that it's going to be more secure to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

If you get a web hosting plan from us, you're going to be able to create subdomains with ease via your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. We've decided not to limit their amount, so even if you host just one domain in the account, you are going to be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different website for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can choose the folder within the account that it's going to open, set up personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, plus much more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains that you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one spot and you'll be able to gain access to numerous functions for each one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
