A subdomain adds a prefix to your domain name, allowing you to divide your domain into specific sections and creating separate sites under a single domain. For example, we have created a subdomain for our Webmail Client, which is "webmail.misk.com". There are many uses for a subdomain and you may create multiple subdomains based off of your one domain name.
With our Domain Essentials package you can create subdomains using our Domain Forwarding, Domain Cloaking/Masking or Custom DNS services.
