A subdomain is the part of the web address that is before a domain name and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while browsing the Internet. For example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so forth. The advantage of 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 can have a supplementary site, such as an e-learning portal for pupils aside from the primary school website. If you work with subdomains instead of subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it'll be more secure to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Hosting

When you use hosting plans you are going to be able to create subdomains with just a few clicks in your web hosting Control Panel. All of them will be listed in one place together with the domain names hosted in the account and arranged under their own domain to help make their managing simpler. Whatever the plan that you pick, you will be able to create many subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages during the process. Additionally, you'll have access to many functions for any of them with just a click, so from the exact same section in which you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other providers, we haven't restricted the number of subdomains which you can have even if you host one domain address in the account.
