A subdomain is a web address, which is under a main, or a root domain name. One example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own website and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and even hosted by a separate provider. Using a subdomain can be very beneficial if you'd like to have different websites that are associated in some way. For example, you may have an online store under the main domain and a forum under a subdomain in order to offer means for your customers to ask questions and / or share experiences concerning your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so you're able to update one of them or perform maintenance not affecting the other.
