Cpanel allows you to create and manage sub-domains for your web-hosting account
A subdomain is a "subsection" of your website that can exist as a subdirectory of your /public_html/ (document root) directory or your home directory
Subdomains use a prefix in conjunction with the domain name
If the registered domain name is rshweb.com, with the desired subdomain of "domain" would look like:
domain.rshweb.com
Or other examples might look like:
ssl.rshweb.com
hosting.rshweb.com
family.rshweb.com
This type of Domain or sub-domain works just like a separate Domain Name. Even the Search Engines treat these as completely different domain names
You can also use subdomains to create unique user account or for a specific subject. This is useful if you have a blog, or any other type of website that uses a domain specifically titled for a user or subject
Subdomains can point to different sections of your web-site. In order to create a subdomain in your cPanel account, please, follow the next steps:
1) Log in your cPanel
2) Navigate to the menu "Subdomains" under the "Domains" section
3) Enter the following details for your subdomain:
Subdomain: the name of your subdomain
Choose the domain you need to create a subdomain for from the drop-down menu
Document Root: the root directory for your subdomain ( for example, it can be /public_html/subdomain )
4) Click "Create"
