What is a sub-domain? (Same Primary Domain, Different something.yourdomain.com)

A sub-domain is a domain which is a part of your main domain itself. For instance, let’s say our main domain is test.com. We want to create a domain for our sales department and direct visitors to a separate area on our web site. Our sub-domain would use “sales” as the prefix and “test.com” as the main domain. You can create sub-domains of your primary domain from your control panel in real time.
