A subdomain is the section of the web address that's before a domain name and you have probably seen a lot of subdomains while surfing around the Internet. For example, many websites such as Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The main benefit of using 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 website, like an e-learning portal for students as well as the primary school site. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it will be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific site, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.

Subdomains in Cloud Hosting

When you use cloud hosting packages you are going to be able to create subdomains with a couple of clicks in your website hosting Control Panel. All of them are going to be listed in a single spot along with the domain addresses hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain to help make their management simpler. No matter the plan that you choose, you will be able to create numerous subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages along the way. Additionally, you will have access to a lot of functions for any of them with just a mouse click, so from the exact same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. Unlike other providers, we have not restricted the amount of subdomains which you can have even if you host just one domain name within the account.
