A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain name and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Web. As an illustration, many websites like Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for students aside from the main 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 certain site, not mentioning that it's going to be more secure to have the websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Our cloud hosting packages will allow you to create hundreds of subdomains for any domain hosted inside your account without any problem. As long as the main domain is added, it will take 2 mouse clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it will open (if different from the default one), create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and administration. By right-clicking on any of them and by using fast access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that particular subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the total amount of subdomains which you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Using our semi-dedicated server plans, you are going to be able to create an unlimited number of subdomains for any of the domains you add as hosted in the account. It takes a few clicks to create a new subdomain and in 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, change the default folder that it'll access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains you have inside the account will be arranged under their root domain from a to z and you'll be able to see and control all of them with ease. Using instant 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 statistics and other information about any one of your subdomains.
