<div align="justify">Many web hosting companies provide '''free subdomains''' added to the hosting plan.

These free subdomains are a part of your primary domain and point to a folder within your 'public_html' directory. Every domain has a "www" subdomain (e.g. "www.yourdomain.com", where the "www" part is the subdomain)
A subdomain, also known as a "third-level" domain, can be used to create memorable web addresses for various possible sub-sites of your site. E.g. "mail.yahoo.com", " mail.google.com" are the subdomains for yahoo.com and google.com. The general format is: "subdomain.domain.com".

An unlimited number of '''free subdomains''' can be created using your '''[[cPanel]]'''. Below you can find the exact steps to create subdomain via cPanel:
1. Log in to your '''cPanel''' and click on the ''''Subdomains'''' icon under the ''''[[Domains]]'''' section.

2. Add the subdomain name you want to create in the ''''Subdomain'''' field.

3. Select the '''desired main domain''' from the pull-down menu.

4. Enter the '''home directory''' for the created subdomain into the ''''Document Root'''' field.</div>
