A subdomain is a website address, that is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and even hosted by a separate provider. Employing a subdomain could be very beneficial if you'd like to have different sites which are connected in some way. As an example, you could have a web-based store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions or share views concerning your products. The advantage of employing a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the sites are going to be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Cloud Website Hosting

Our cloud website hosting packages will permit you to create many subdomains for every domain address hosted inside your account without any hassle. If the main domain address is added, it takes 2 mouse clicks to set up 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, and much more. All subdomains will be conveniently listed in alphabetical order under their main domain for effortless access and control. By right-clicking on any of them and by using fast access buttons you can see the error logs, visitor statistics or site files for that particular subdomain. We have not set a limit for the amount of subdomains which you can create with any of our plans, so you can have as many as you wish.
