Virtual Subhosting

Virtual Subhosting, is one of the most powerful features of our Virtual Servers and our Apache Web Server. This feature allows you to support multiple Domain Names that each resolve to their own unique subdirectories on a single Virtual Server. In other words, you can host "bob.com" and "jim.com" on the same Virtual Server, each with its own domain name and unique site content. You can also offer each Virtual Subhost customer their own unique FTP login with access to their own subdirectory and e-mail addresses using their own domain name.

When used correctly, Virtual Subhosting offers you a powerful, low-cost product that you can use to get your "foot in the door" with prospective clients. You can use Virtual Subhosting to provide clients with a small sample site for $10 to $20 per month, later upgrading them to their own full Virtual Server as their needs expand.

Limitations

For performance reasons, we have established guidelines with regard to the number of Virtual Subhosts you should place on a single Virtual Server. Keep in mind that these guidelines are suggested so that the performance of your own Virtual Server and Virtual Subhost domains is not compromised.

Server A:
Server B:
Server C:
around  10 low volume subhosts
around 50 low volume subhosts
around 100 low volume subhosts
