A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain name and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while exploring world wide web. For example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have an independent site and its own records, so you can even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for students aside from the main school site. If you use subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it's going to be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Website Hosting

Our website hosting plans will permit you to set up countless subdomains for every domain address hosted in your account without any difficulty. As long as the main domain is added, it takes 2 mouse clicks to create a subdomain and pick what folder it will open (if different from the default one), create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions, set a shared IP address or a dedicated one, plus much more. All subdomains are going to be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for convenient access and control. By right-clicking on any of them and by using instant access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that particular subdomain. We have not set a restriction for the amount of subdomains which you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.
