Virtual Subhosting
Virtual Subhosting is one of the most powerful
features of the Virtual Server 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.
