A subdomain is the part of the web address which is before a domain and you've probably seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Internet. 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 benefit of employing a subdomain is that it can have an independent website and its own records, so you're able to even host it on a different server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary site, like an e-learning portal for college students in addition to the primary school site. If you use subdomains instead of subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a particular website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the sites separate from each other.
Subdomains in Shared Website Hosting
Each shared website hosting package we supply will enable you to create hundreds of subdomains with no more than a few clicks in your website hosting Control Panel. They're going to be listed in the section in which you create them and arranged under the main domain for more convenience, so that you can effortlessly monitor all of them. Furthermore, you can access lots of functions for any of the subdomains through right-click context menus - for instance, you can view or modify their DNS records, access the site files, and much more. While setting up a new subdomain, you will also have numerous options that you can pick from - define the default access folder, create custom error pages, activate FrontPage Extensions or select if the subdomain will use a shared or a dedicated IP address. How many subdomains you will have is totally up to you as we have not restricted this feature for any of our plans.
