A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain and you have probably seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around world wide web. As an example, many websites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. 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 you could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for college students on top of the primary school website. If you are using subdomains rather than subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting

Our cloud web hosting packages will enable you to set up hundreds of subdomains for any domain address hosted inside your account without any difficulty. Provided that the main domain name is added, it will take 2 mouse clicks to set up a subdomain and select what folder it's going to open (if different from the default one), set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and a lot more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for quick access and control. By right-clicking on any of them and by using instant access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or website files for that particular subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the amount of subdomains you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you want.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers

With our semi-dedicated server plans, you will be able to create an unrestricted amount of subdomains for any of the domains which you add as hosted in the account. It's going to take a couple of mouse clicks to create a new subdomain and throughout the process you will be able to add custom-made error pages for it, choose if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP address, change the default folder that it will access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains you have within the account will be arranged under their root domain in alphabetical order and you're going to be able to see and manage all of them with ease. Via fast access buttons and right-click menus you'll also be able to jump to the site files within the File Manager section or check logs, visitor stats and other info about any one of your subdomains.
