Website/Shrine Question

[wavesagainstrocks]

Hello! I'm hoping someone here could answer my admittedly really silly question.

I've dabbled in coding and have used websites like Neocities to host my site in the past, which was all fine and well! But I had come across an entry here on DW regarding a Shrine Challenge. I looked through a lot of the published shrines and they all looked like they had "multiple" sites under the same domain (not on anything like Neocities). Is this something you pay for? Are there any free hosts out there able to do this too?

I can give some examples if this question doesn't make sense, haha! I'm having a hard time explaining it, but I didn't wanna just post someone's site link without permission or anything like that!

Thanks so much!

Those are called subdomains! They have one main domain and then the other domains are nestled into it (website.com to subdomain.website.com).

The only host I'm aware of that will host you with unlimited subdomains is Leprd if you own a domain (judging from their info page, but who knows after inquiring). That might be more cost-effective for you depending on your domain than paying for your own hosting (for example, I pay like $10 a year each on the two domains I own, then an additional $60 a year with my host) if you just want more web space to play around with.

Hiya' thank you for the info! This helps a bunch!! I've been wondering how people are able to make tons of different "pages" like that... Neocities only seemed to offer so much space/storage to work with if you had a free account, so I was confused on how it worked, haha! Thanks again!
