please explain if you could what each of those are called and if someone could give some advice on what i need in a provider to host multiple pages under 1 domain name
Is a subdomain something.something.com or something.com/something?
Subdomains may be costly to maintain, so use the folder method instead.
But a subdomain is like your first something.
The drawback of using multiple subdomains, is that fewer providers will do this for you. That means that you would be locked into that arrangement, and become a victim of higher Provider fees down the road.
Good luck and Happy Computing!
Is a subdomain something.something.com or something.com/something?
It's actually:
subdomain.domain.com
When you were writing domain.com/subdomain
the /subdomain in this case is not a subdomain but rather a directory in the domain.
You can create PTR records with whoever is hosting your DNS to directories or subdomains on your domain.
Edit-sorry I just reread your question and realized you did have an example of the correct way of expressing a sub-domain.
Is a subdomain something.something.com or something.com/something?
yes, a subdomain is, for example instead of http://www.yahoo.com something like:
- http://answers.yahoo.com
- http://360.yahoo.com
- http://finance.yahoo.com etc
Simply what you need is a posh webhosting company like I use:
