A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain and you have quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while browsing world wide web. For instance, many websites like Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for students on top of the primary school site. If you use subdomains rather than subfolders, it's going to 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 one another.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

When you acquire a cloud hosting plan from our company, you are going to be able to create subdomains with ease through your Hepsia website hosting Control Panel. We have decided not to limit their number, so even if you host just one domain name in the account, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you wish and have a different website for every single one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can choose the folder inside the account that it will open, create custom 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 will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to access a lot of functions for every one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
