A subdomain is a web address, that is under a main, or a root domain name. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be totally independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain can be very handy if you want to have different websites which are related in some way. For instance, you could have a web-based store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your customers to ask questions and share experiences regarding your products. The main advantage of using a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

Each web hosting plan that we offer will enable you to create numerous subdomains with no more than a couple of clicks inside your hosting Control Panel. They will all be listed in the area where you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, so that you're able to very easily keep track of all of them. Additionally, you can access many functions for any of the subdomains using right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or modify their DNS records, access the site files, and more. While creating a new subdomain, you will also have a number of options that you can pick from - define the default access folder, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or pick if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. What number of subdomains you are going to have is entirely up to you since we have not restricted this feature for any of our packages.

Even if you set up a great number of subdomains, you'll be able to keep track of all of them with ease since they will be listed in alphabetical order under their main domain. For every single one of them, you can even access the website files or check out logs and usage stats through fast access buttons.
