A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain, such as name.example.com. Technically, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Each subdomain can have its own website and records and can also be hosted using a different company if you want to use a feature which isn't provided by your current provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a company website as well as an online store under a subdomain where clients can purchase your products. Additionally, you can have a forum in which they can comment on the products and by employing subdomains as an alternative to subfolders you are going to avoid any chance of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your websites separated is also less risky in the case of a script security breach.
Subdomains in Cloud Hosting
When you buy a cloud hosting plan from us, you'll be able to create subdomains effortlessly using your Hepsia hosting CP. We've decided not to limit their number, so even when you host only one domain in the account, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like and have a different site for each and every one. During the creation of a subdomain, you'll be able to choose the folder in the account that it will open, create personalized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions and error logs, choose a server shared IP address or a dedicated one if you have such, and much more. All hosted domain addresses and the subdomains you create for them will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order in one location and you will be able to access a lot of functions for every single one of them through right-click context menus - records, files, etc.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
You’re able to create as many subdomains as you wish with any of our Linux semi-dedicated service as we haven't set an upper limit for this feature.

Even if you create a great number of subdomains, you will be able to keep track of all of them with ease because they are going to be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For each of them, you can even access the site files or see logs and usage statistics through instant access buttons.
