A subdomain is a part of a web address which is under the main domain name, for instance name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain given that the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain could have its own web site and records and can even be hosted through a different provider if you wish to use a certain feature which is not provided by your current provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a business website as well as an online store under a subdomain where clients can purchase your products. You can even have a forum in which they can comment on the products and by employing subdomains rather than subfolders you will avoid any risk of all sites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your websites separated is also more secure in the case of a script security breach.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

If you buy a shared hosting plan through our company, you're going to be able to create subdomains with ease through your Hepsia hosting CP. We've decided not to restrict their amount, so in case you host only one domain name in the account, you're going to be able to create as many subdomains as you want and have a different website for each and every one of them. During the creation of a subdomain, you can choose the folder in the account that it'll open, set up personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, plus much more. All hosted domain names and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one place and you are going to be able to gain access to numerous functions for every one of them with right-click context menus - records, files, etc.

All subdomains you've got inside the account are going to be arranged under their root domain in alphabetical order and you're going to be able to see and control them with ease.
