A subdomain is a web address, that's under a main, or a root domain. One example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and even hosted by a separate provider. Employing a subdomain can be very beneficial if you wish to have different websites that are associated in some way. For instance, you could 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 share opinions concerning your products. The advantage of employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites are going to be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.
