          To navigate to different sections of your website, subdomains are very useful.

            If you wish to send guests to different web addresses such as a directory, social media page or any different IP address, then a subdomain is helpful.​

                You can contact your hosting provider to set it or even if you know how to do it, you can do it yourself. All you need to do is make sure the subdomain is pointing to the server where the website you wish to serve is hosted.​

                  As the name itself explains, a subdomain is a part of the main domain.

                      Sure. Look at the example below:

                      Main domain- test.com

                      Subdomains-

                      1) store.test.com

                      2) news.test.com

                      3) forums.test.com
