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

Subdomains in Website Hosting

Our website hosting plans will enable you to create hundreds of subdomains for every domain hosted inside your account without any hassle. If the main domain address is added, it takes two clicks to create a subdomain and pick what folder it'll open (if different from the default one), create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, and a lot more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for convenient access and administration. By right-clicking on any one of them and by using fast access buttons you can view the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that specific subdomain. We haven't set a limit for the amount of subdomains you can create with any one of our plans, so you can have as many as you need.
