Creating Subdomain

To add a new subdomain, follow these steps:

  1. Choose All Domains from the Subscription selector at the top of the control panel screen. The list of your domains and subdomains appears, if you have any.
  2. Click on the Add New Subdomain button.
  3. Enter the general parameters for a new subdomain:

    • Into the Subdomain name(s) field, type the name you wish to assign to your subdomain. In the drop-down list, select the domain for which you are creating the subdomain.
    • Select the Zone management ability option if you want to get the ability of managing DNS zone for your subdomain. This includes the possibility to add and change zone records and tune zone time settings.
    • Choose the type of hosting by selecting a required option in a hosting area. See the Creating Website topic for the information about Website. See the Domain Parking section for the information about other types of Web hosting.
  4. When you have entered all the required values, click on the Next button. The following steps depend on the selected type of hosting.
  5. After you have followed the wizard steps, the final wizard step opens. Click on the Finish button to complete the process.

Note: If you select None as the type of Web hosting, the final wizard step opens just after the first step. A subdomain without hosting is called pure subdomain.

The other way to create a subdomain is to perform the following actions:

  1. Choose All Domains from the Subscription selector at the top of the control panel screen. The list of your domains opens.
  2. Select a domain by clicking on a domain name. The Summary tab opens.
  3. On the Summary tab, click on the Add New Subdomain button.
  4. Follow the steps 3-5 from the previous instruction.
