A subdomain is a web address, that's 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. Every single subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a different service provider. Using a subdomain can be extremely beneficial if you want to have different web 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 offer means for your customers to ask questions and share experiences about your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the sites are going to be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.
Subdomains in Shared Hosting
When you obtain a shared hosting plan through our company, you are going to be able to create subdomains easily using your Hepsia hosting CP. We have decided not to restrict their number, so even when you host only 1 domain name in the account, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different site for every single one. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to pick the folder inside the account that it's going to open, create personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, select a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and much more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains you create for them are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you are going to be able to access numerous functions for each one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
