A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain name and you have almost certainly seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Internet. For instance, many sites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main advantage of employing a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for students aside from the main school site. If you work with subdomains rather than subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a certain website, not mentioning that it will be more secure to have the sites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

Every cloud hosting package that we supply will enable you to create numerous subdomains with no more than a couple of clicks in your website hosting CP. They are going to be listed in the section in which you create them and grouped under the main domain for more convenience, to help you very easily keep an eye on all of them. Furthermore, you can access lots of functions for any of the subdomains via right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or change their DNS records, access the website files, and much more. While setting up a new subdomain, you'll also have numerous options that you can choose from - specify the default access folder, set customized error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or choose if the subdomain is going to use a shared or a dedicated IP address. How many subdomains you are going to have is 100 % up to you since we haven't limited this feature for any of our packages.
