A subdomain is a web address, which is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a separate provider. Using a subdomain can be extremely practical if you want to have different websites that are associated in some way. As an example, you could have an on-line store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain so as to provide means for your clients to ask questions or share views concerning your products. The best thing about using a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.

Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting

Each cloud web hosting package which we provide will enable you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a couple of mouse clicks within your website hosting CP. They're going to be listed in the area in which you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, so you can easily monitor every one of them. Furthermore, you can access a lot of functions for any one of the subdomains via right-click context menus - as an example, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the site files, and much more. While creating a new subdomain, you're also going to have numerous options that you can choose from - specify the default access folder, create unique error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or select if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The number of subdomains you are going to have is totally up to you since we have not limited this feature for any of our packages.
