Any domain that you want to create from an existing domain is called a subdomain. How many subdomains you can add to your hosting account will depend on the hosting package that you are buying. Addon domain works as a child domain of an existing domain (i.e. blog.example.com) and you can upload the files of the website under the specified folder under “public_html” for that subdomain.
- First, log in to your cPanel and click on “Subdomains” located in the domains section. You will find the options to add a new subdomain.
- Enter the first part of your subdomain on the “Subdomain” box. Then select the domain that you want to use to create the subdomain from the “Domain” dropdown menu.
- Document Root folder will be automatically filled, so you do not need to edit anything on this box.
- Now click on the Create button and your subdomain will be created. You can now upload your files for the subdomain on the folder specified as Document Root.
