A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain name, such as name.example.com. Actually, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every single subdomain can have its own website and records and can even be hosted with a different provider if you need to use a specific feature that's not provided by your current provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a company site along with an online store under a subdomain where customers can purchase your products. You can even have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains as an alternative to subfolders you will avoid any risk of all sites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping the websites separated is less risky in case there is a script security breach.
Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting

All of them are going to be listed in a single spot along with the domain addresses hosted in the account and arranged under their own domain so as to make their management a lot easier. Regardless of the plan that you pick, you are going to be able to create numerous subdomains and set their access folder or set up custom error pages in the process. You will also have access to a lot of functions for any of them with only a click, so from the same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. Unlike other providers, we have not limited the amount of subdomains which you can have even if you host just one domain address inside the account.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you buy a semi-dedicated server package, you'll be able to create as many subdomains as you'd like simply because this feature is unrestricted. For the reason that the website hosting packages are very powerful, we've decided not to put any limit on the number of subdomains. Our advanced Hepsia CP will enable you to create a new subdomain with no more than a few clicks, to pick which folder it is going to access within the account, to enable FrontPage Extensions for it, to set up unique error pages, to set a shared or a dedicated IP address if you have one, and more. For your convenience, all the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, allowing you to very easily see and control them. Using quick access links, you'll have the ability to open the site files for any one of the subdomains that you have or check out its DNS records.
