A subdomain is a website address, which is under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every single subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be totally independent and also hosted by a different provider. Using a subdomain can be quite useful if you wish to have different websites that are related in some way. For instance, you can have an on-line store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your customers to ask questions and / or share experiences regarding your products. The benefit of employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the sites are going to be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
