A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain and you've quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Web. As an illustration, many websites like Wikipedia have versions in various languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The main advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that one could have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for pupils in addition to the main school site. If you work with subdomains instead of subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it will be more safe to have the websites separate from one another.
Subdomains in Cloud Web Hosting
Each and every cloud web hosting package we provide will allow you to create numerous subdomains with no more than a couple of clicks inside your website hosting CP. They're going to be listed in the area where you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, to help you effortlessly keep track of them all. In addition, you can access lots of functions for any of the subdomains through right-click context menus - as an example, you can view or edit their DNS records, access the website files, and more. While setting up a new subdomain, you are also going to have lots of options that you can choose from - determine 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. What number of subdomains you will have is entirely up to you since we have not limited this feature for any of our packages.
Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
When you get a semi-dedicated server plan, you will be able to create as many subdomains as you would like simply because this feature is unrestricted.

For your convenience, all the subdomains are going to be listed under their root domain, so that you can effortlessly see and control them. Using quick access links, you'll also have the ability to open the website files for any one of the subdomains that you have or view its DNS records.
