As many of you know, creating a subdomain helps us add specific sections within our main domain. It is quite useful when we need to have more addresses of our own on the website, such as: the store, a section dedicated to customer service, games for children, reservations, landing pages ... In short, the subdomain is the ideal solution to divide areas according to interests .
In this new post we bring you a simple and quick tutorial to create subdomains in the new version of cPanel . We already said that it is not difficult, so have everything ready and in less time than it takes to have a cup of coffee we will be celebrating.
Access cPanel
The first step to create a subdomain is to log into your hosting 's cPanel account , the tool you use to manage your hosting, with the access data provided by your web provider. Go to your domain's URL and add /cpanel at the end:
yourweb.com/cpanel
Once inside the menu, we look for the space dedicated to "domains" and click on "subdomains".
Create a subdomain
On the next screen, the registration form will appear, which will allow you to start building your subdomain. In the "subdomain" box, add the name you want to give to the new section, whether it be clients, offers or repairs.
reservations.myweb.com clients.myweb.com technical assistance.myweb.com
And in the space below, the root directory , you can choose the folder where to host the subdomain files or create one automatically by clicking on the empty space.
A confirmation message will appear and we click "return".
Setting up the subdomain
See how easy it is? We now have our subdomain ready to receive content . The next step would be to configure this new section to give it autonomy. Our recommendation: make the most of it by dedicating it to specific functions such as "portfolio", "gallery" or "user area". The web environment will become more comfortable and potential clients will appreciate it.
