A subdomain is a web address, that is under a main, or a root domain name. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. aside from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be completely independent and also hosted by a separate provider. Employing a subdomain can be quite handy if you'd like to have different websites that are related in some way. For instance, you may have an online store under the main domain plus a forum under a subdomain so as to supply means for your clients to ask questions and share experiences about your products. The best thing about using a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the sites will be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.
