A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain and you've almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Internet. As an example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of using a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you can even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for pupils on top of the main school site. If you use subdomains rather than subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular site, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Our shared hosting plans will allow you to set up countless subdomains for every domain name hosted within your account without any hassle. If the main domain is added, it will take two mouse clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it will open (if different from the default one), set unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for convenient access and control. By right-clicking on any of them and by using quick access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a restriction for the amount of subdomains you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you want.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Through our semi-dedicated server plans, you'll be able to create an unlimited amount of subdomains for any one of the domains that you add as hosted in the account. It's going to take a few mouse clicks to create a new subdomain and in the process you're going to be able to to add unique error pages for it, select if it will use a shared or a dedicated IP address, change the default folder that it will access or activate FrontPage Extensions. All subdomains you've got within the account will be grouped under their root domain in alphabetical order and you will be able to see and manage all of them without difficulty. Via instant access buttons and right-click menus you'll also be able to jump to the site files within the File Manager area or check logs, visitor statistics and other info about any one of your subdomains.
