A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain and you have quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. For example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for students as well as the main school website. If you use subdomains instead of subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it will be more secure to have the websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Each and every shared hosting plan which we supply will enable you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a couple of clicks within your hosting CP. They are going to be listed in the section in which you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, so that you can very easily keep track of every one of them. Additionally, you can access lots of functions for any of the subdomains through right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or change their DNS records, access the website files, and a lot more. While setting up a new subdomain, you are also going to have a number of options that you can pick from - specify the default access folder, set unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or pick if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The amount of subdomains you are going to have is totally up to you since we have not restricted this feature for any one of our plans.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

You are able to create as many subdomains as you wish with any of our Linux semi-dedicated hosting since we have not set an upper limit for this feature.

Even if you set up a great number of subdomains, you're going to be able to keep track of them with ease because they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For any one of them, you are able to access the site files or view logs and usage stats via quick access buttons.
