Why not use subdomains? https://hostboards.com/index.php?p=/discussion/5192/why-need-so-many-domains-why-not-use-subdomains Fri, 11 Feb 2022 18:59:20 +0000 Hosting Discussion & News Opsidian 5192@/index.php?p=/discussions Instead of buying many domains, why don't we all use one domain and run additional sites as subdomains?

For example, we could settle in using subdomains on our business domain or even our own name?

The content of each site doesn't have to be related to each other, perhaps totally separate sites.

Think about how much we'd save by not owning hundreds of domains.

I've been doing it this way for about 5 years now and never had an issue - is there some downside/security/ect issue I am missing? Or if its working for me, should I just keep on keeping on?
