A subdomain is a web address, that is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and even hosted by a different company. Using a subdomain can be very useful if you'd like to have different sites which are connected in some way. For example, you can have an online store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your customers to ask questions and share thoughts about your products. The advantage of employing a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the web sites are going to be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.

All of them are going to be listed in one location along with the domains hosted in the account and grouped under their own domain in order to make their managing a lot easier. No matter the plan that you select, you are going to be able to create numerous subdomains and set their access folder or create custom error pages in the process. You'll have access to many functions for any of them with only a mouse click, so from the same section where you create them you can access their DNS records, files, visitor statistics, etc. In contrast to other providers, we haven't restricted the number of subdomains you can have even if you host only one domain within the account.
