A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain name and you've most likely seen a lot of subdomains while exploring world wide web. For instance, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The best thing about using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you are able to even host it on a separate server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, like an e-learning portal for college students as well as the main school site. If you work with subdomains as an alternative to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain site, not mentioning that it will be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.
Subdomains in Hosting
With our hosting packages you're going to be able to create subdomains with only a few mouse clicks in your website hosting Control Panel. All of them will be listed in one location together with the domain addresses hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain in order to make their management easier. Whatever the plan that you choose, you'll be able to create hundreds of subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages along the way. Additionally, you will have access to many functions for any of them with only a mouse click, so from the same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. Unlike other companies, we haven't restricted the number of subdomains that you can have even if you host only one domain name inside the account.
