Managing a website often means more than running a single domain. You may want to create a separate area for your blog, launch a testing website, build an online store, or host another completely different website from the same hosting account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where subdomains and addon domains in cPanel<\/strong> become useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A subdomain<\/strong> lets you create a separate section under your existing domain, such as blog.example.com<\/code> or shop.example.com<\/code>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An addon domain<\/strong>, on the other hand, allows you to host another domain and website from the same cPanel account, provided your hosting plan supports it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news is that you can manage both from the cPanel Domains<\/strong> interface without complicated server commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this guide, you will learn how to create a subdomain and addon domain in cPanel<\/strong>, how to connect DNS, where your website files are stored, and what to check if your new domain does not open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
