A subdomain allows you to create a separate section of your website under your main domain, such as blog.yourdomain.com or panel.yourdomain.com. This guide explains how to create a subdomain through Cpanel.

1. Log in to Cpanel

Visit https://yourdomain.com:2083 and log in. Then, find and open the “Subdomains” section.

2. Create a Subdomain

In the “Create a Subdomain” form, fill out the following fields:

• Subdomain: blog, panel, support, etc.
• Domain: choose the parent domain
• Document Root: folder where files will be stored (e.g., public_html/blog)

Click Create to complete the setup.

3. Upload Files to the Subdomain

After creation, go to “File Manager” and upload your website files into the corresponding directory (e.g., public_html/blog).

4. Add SSL for Security

If the SSL certificate isn’t applied automatically, navigate to “SSL/TLS Status” and run AutoSSL to enable HTTPS security for your subdomain.

5. Check DNS Configuration

Ensure an A record for your subdomain has been created in DNS automatically. If pointing to an external server, add it manually to avoid downtime.
