A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain name and you have almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Web. As an illustration, many websites like Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The main advantage 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 different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for pupils in addition to the primary school website. If you work with subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific site, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the sites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting packages will enable you to create countless subdomains for every domain name hosted within your account without any difficulty. As long as the main domain is added, it takes two mouse clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), set unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for convenient access and control. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using quick access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We have not set a limit for the total number of subdomains you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.
