Subdomains
Subdomains can be extremely helpful for your web presence. Learn more about them as well as how they do this.
A subdomain is a website address, which is under a main, or a root domain name. An example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain can be extremely handy if you wish to have different sites that are related in some way. For example, you can have an on-line store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain in order to provide means for your clients to ask questions and share opinions concerning your products. The advantage of using a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
Subdomains in Shared Hosting
Our shared hosting packages will allow you to create many subdomains for any domain hosted inside your account without any problem. Assuming that the main domain is added, it requires 2 mouse clicks to create a subdomain and choose what folder it will open (if different from the default one), create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for easy access and administration. 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 total amount of subdomains that you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you want.
