A subdomain is a website url, that is under a main, or a root domain. An illustration is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain can be quite beneficial if you'd like to have different sites that are related in some way. For example, you could have an on-line store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain so as to offer means for your clients to ask questions and share opinions about your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the websites will be separated, so you're able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
