A subdomain is a website url, which is 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 a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be totally independent and even hosted by a different service provider. Using a subdomain can be extremely beneficial if you wish to have different websites that are related in some way. For example, you can have an on-line store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain in order to offer means for your customers to ask questions and / or share opinions about your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain as opposed to a subfolder is that the web sites are going to be separated, so that you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
