A subdomain is a website url, 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. Each and every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from employing 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 can be extremely useful if you want to have different sites that are connected in some way. For example, you could have an on-line store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain so as to offer means for your customers to ask questions and share thoughts regarding your products. The main advantage of employing a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Every single cloud hosting plan we supply will permit you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a few clicks within your website hosting Control Panel. They'll all be listed in the area in which you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, so you can easily keep an eye on all of them. Additionally, you can access many functions for any of the subdomains through right-click context menus - as an example, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the site files, and a lot more. While setting up a new subdomain, you will also have lots of options that you can select from - specify the default access folder, set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or decide if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. How many subdomains you will have is entirely up to you because we have not restricted this feature for any of our packages.

When the subdomain is created, you'll be able to access logs and visitor statistics or swiftly jump to the website files for it within the File Manager area through quick access buttons.
