A subdomain is a part of a web address that is under the main domain name, for instance name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own site and records and can also be hosted through a different provider if you want to use a certain feature that isn't provided by your current provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website and an online store under a subdomain where customers can acquire your products. You can also have a forum in which they can comment on the products and by using subdomains rather than subfolders you will avoid any chance of all websites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping the sites separated is also more secure in the event of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

When you buy a shared hosting plan from our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains effortlessly using your Hepsia hosting CP. We've decided not to limit their amount, so even if you host only one domain name in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different website for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you can select the folder in the account that it's going to open, set up 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 names and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you will be able to gain access to numerous functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
