A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain name and you have probably seen a lot of subdomains while browsing world wide web. As an illustration, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for college students in addition to the primary school website. If you are using subdomains instead of 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 sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Shared Website Hosting

Every shared website hosting package that we provide will allow you to create numerous subdomains with no more than a few clicks within your web hosting Control Panel. They are going to be listed in the section where you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, to help you easily keep tabs on every one of them. Furthermore, you can access lots of functions for any one of the subdomains through right-click context menus - as an example, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the website files, and a lot more. While creating a new subdomain, you'll also have lots of options that you can select from - specify the default access folder, create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or pick 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 because we have not restricted this feature for any of our packages.
