A subdomain is a web address, that's under a main, or a root domain. One example is something.domain.com, where 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 using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be totally independent and even hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain could be very handy if you'd like to have different websites which are associated in some way. For example, you may have an online store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions and share thoughts about your products. The advantage of employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the sites are going to be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Every shared hosting package that we provide will enable you to create many subdomains with no more than a few mouse clicks in your hosting Control Panel. They are going to be listed in the section in which you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, so you can effortlessly keep tabs on all of them. Additionally, you can access lots of functions for any of the subdomains via right-click context menus - as an example, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the website files, and much more. While setting up a new subdomain, you're also going to have lots of options that you can pick from - define the default access folder, create customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or pick if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. What number of subdomains you'll have is completely up to you because we have not limited this feature for any one of our packages.
