A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain, such as name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain because the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Every subdomain can have its own web site and records and can even be hosted using a different provider if you need to use a feature that's not provided by your current provider. An example for using a subdomain is if you have a business site and an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. You can even have a forum where they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains as opposed to subfolders you are going to avoid any risk of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping your sites separated is also less risky in the event of a script security breach.
