A subdomain is a web address, which is under a main, or a root domain name. One example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Using a subdomain can be quite practical if you wish to have different websites which are associated in some way. As an example, you can have a web-based store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions and share opinions concerning your products. The benefit of using a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

Subdomains in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our Linux semi-dedicated plans do not have a restriction for the amount of subdomains you can create. Adding a new subdomain in the account takes just a few clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel and throughout the process you can pick the folder the subdomain will access if it will be different from the default one, set up custom error pages, enable FrontPage Extensions if you need them or set a dedicated IP address instead of the shared server one provided you have added this upgrade to your semi-dedicated account. As soon as the subdomain is created, you can access logs and visitor stats or swiftly jump to the site files for it within the File Manager area through fast access buttons. All subdomains that you have in the account will be conveniently listed under their root domain, so you will be able to find and control any one of them effortlessly.
