A subdomain is a website address, which is under a main, or a root domain name. One example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be totally independent and also hosted by a separate company. Employing a subdomain can be very beneficial if you wish to have different web sites that are related in some way. As an example, you may have a web-based store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your customers to ask questions and share views concerning your products. The main advantage of using a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our Linux semi-dedicated packages haven't got a limit for the amount of subdomains that you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes only a couple of mouse clicks in the Hepsia hosting CP and throughout the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it is going to be different from the default one, set up customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions if you need them or create a dedicated IP address rather than the shared server one if you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. As soon as the subdomain is created, you will be able to access logs and visitor statistics or you can quickly jump to the website files for it in the File Manager section through instant access buttons.
