A subdomain is a subsidiary of a Domain.
In other words, a subdomain is another name for a directory (or folder) of your website (the domain).
Example
For example, if your domain is called yourdomain.com, then you could create a subdomain called mysubdomain.
The URL for your domain looks like this:
- http://www.yourdomain.com
The URL for your subdomain will look like this:
- http://mysubdomain.yourdomain.com
The subdomain URL will present the content of the directory called mysubdomain in the visitor's browser.
