A subdomain is a web address, that's under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain name, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from using the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be entirely independent and also hosted by a different service provider. Using a subdomain could be very useful if you wish to have different websites which are associated in some way. For example, you may 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 benefit of using a subdomain instead of a subfolder is that the websites are going to be separated, so you can update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
