What is the difference between domain and a subdomain?

0

The difference between a subdomain and a domain name can be explained easily. While a domain name is a full website address, totally independent of other domain names, a subdomain depends on a domain name. If for example “yourdomain.com” is your domain name, then http://yourdomain.com and http://www.yourdomain.com would be your domain name’s address. A subdomain name would be a name *under* your domain name, something like “subdomain.yourdomain.com”. It’s address would then be: http://subdomain.yourdomain.com and http://www.subdomain.yourdomain.com. It can say anything you want instead of “subdomain” and the nice thing is that unlike a full domain name, a subdomain does not need to be registered – we will register it for you.
