A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain name and you have quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while browsing world wide web. As an example, many websites like Wikipedia have versions in different languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of employing 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 one could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for college students as well as the primary school site. If you are using subdomains instead of subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it's going to be more secure to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Each cloud hosting package which we provide will allow you to create many subdomains with no more than a few clicks within your website hosting CP. They are going to be listed in the area in which you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, so that you can easily keep track of every one of them. In addition, you can access lots of functions for any of the subdomains through right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or change their DNS records, access the website files, plus much more. While creating a new subdomain, you're also going to have a number of options that you can pick from - specify the default access folder, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or choose if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. The amount of subdomains you'll have is totally up to you since we have not restricted this feature for any one of our plans.
