A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain name and you have most likely seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Web. For example, many sites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for pupils aside from the main school site. If you are using subdomains instead of subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it will be more secure to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Web Hosting

Every web hosting package we offer will enable you to create numerous subdomains with no more than a few clicks inside your website hosting Control Panel. They are going to be listed in the area in which you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, so that you can effortlessly keep an eye on every one of them. Furthermore, you can access lots of functions for any of the subdomains using right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or modify their DNS records, access the website files, and a lot more. While setting up a new subdomain, you'll also have many options that you can select from - determine the default access folder, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or decide if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The amount of subdomains you are going to have is totally up to you since we have not restricted this feature for any one of our plans.
