How to create a Subdomain in cPanel

A subdomain is an additional part of your main website that can exist as a new website without a new domain name.

Subdomains are used to organize and navigate to different URLs for different content areas of your site.

For example

subdomain-1

In this example, ‘blog’ is the subdomain, ‘yourdomain’ is the primary domain, and ‘.com’ is the top-level domain (TLD).

Any text can be used as your subdomain, but please make sure it’s easy to remember.

Enter the Document Root. cPanel by default fills in the the document root with the subdomain text. You can either leave it as it is or modify it as per your convenience.
