A subdomain is a website address, that's under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, where domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a different company. Using a subdomain can be quite beneficial if you wish to have different websites which are related in some way. As an example, you can have an online store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain in order to supply means for your clients to ask questions or share thoughts concerning your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the sites are going to be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
