A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain and you've almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around world wide web. For example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you can even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for students in addition to the main school site. If you work with 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 websites separate from one another.

Subdomains in Shared Hosting

Every single shared hosting package we offer will allow you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a few clicks inside your web hosting CP. They'll all be listed in the section where you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, so that you can effortlessly keep track of all of them. Additionally, you can access lots of functions for any one of the subdomains using right-click context menus - for example, you can view or modify their DNS records, access the site files, and much more. While creating a new subdomain, you will also have many options that you can select from - define the default access folder, set custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or select if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The amount of subdomains you will have is 100 % up to you since we haven't limited this feature for any one of our packages.

Even if you create a huge amount of subdomains, you are going to be able to keep track of all of them with ease as they are going to be listed in alphabetical order below their main domain. For each of them, you can also access the website files or view logs and usage stats through instant access buttons.
