Add a Sub Domain

A subdomain is a second website, with its own unique content, but there is no new domain name. Instead, you use an existing domain name and change the www to another name. The subdomain name looks like shop.domain.com, help.domain.com, support.domain.com (assuming you already host domain.com).
