A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain and you've almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Internet. As an example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The main benefit of employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent site and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for pupils in addition to the main school website. If you use subdomains rather than subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Shared Web Hosting

Our shared web hosting packages will allow you to create hundreds of subdomains for every domain hosted within your account without any difficulty. As long as the main domain address is added, it requires 2 clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it will open (if different from the default one), set customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and a lot more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for quick access and control. 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 specific subdomain. We have not set a limit for the amount of subdomains you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.
