A subdomain is a web address, that is under a main, or a root domain name. One 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 website and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as a part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be fully independent and even hosted by a separate service provider. Employing a subdomain can be quite practical if you want to have different sites which are connected in some way. As an example, you may have an online store under the main domain as well as a forum under a subdomain in order to provide means for your clients to ask questions or share experiences concerning your products. The best thing about employing a subdomain rather than 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.
