When you create a subdomain in cPanel, you will be asked to choose the name of the subdomain, the domain the subdomain is for and the location from which the new subdomain will load it's content.
Note: Some subdomain names are reserved: mail, www, ftp, cpanel, whm, webmail, webdisk. You can use any name except these.
How do I create a subdomain?
- Log in to your Cpanel and navigate to the --> Domains Section.
- Click on Domains --> A page will come up which contain the list of subdomain (if you have created any before).
- Click on the "Create A New Domain" button
- Enter the name of the subdomain you want to create in the provided text field e.g (example.mydomain.com)
- Do not check the "Share document root" check field, as this will set the created sub-domain to serve the same content as the primary domain and this setting is permanent.
- Click Submit.
