A subdomain is a website url, that is under a main, or a root domain name. One example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and also hosted by a different service provider. Employing a subdomain can be quite beneficial if you want to have different web sites that are connected in some way. For instance, you can have a web-based store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to provide means for your customers to ask questions or share views concerning your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.
