Subdomains let you create memorable addresses and easy ways to access areas of your website.
There are a few things to know about using subdomains:
- A subdomain must be a subdomain of another domain name on your Linux Hosting account - for example, if you've got "coolexample.com", you can add "pics.coolexample.com".
- Subdomain website files are stored in a different directory than the main domain website files.
- Go to your MaticHosting product page.
- Select the Linux Hosting account you want to use, click View Details.
- In the account Dashboard, click cPanel Admin
- In the cPanel Home page, in the Domains section, click Subdomains.
- In the cPanel Subdomains page, enter just the Subdomain name - for example pics.
- Make sure the main Domain is selected.
- Leave the Document Root set to the default. This keeps the subdomain files in a separate directory from the main domain files.
- Click Create. cPanel creates the subdomain and it appears in the Modify a Subdomain list.
