WHAT IS A SUB-DOMAIN?

A sub-domain, also known as a domain inside a domain, is a prefix that is placed at the beginning of your domain name. You can point them to a folder to host a website, just like a traditional domain name. Sub-domain is a domain that is part of a larger domain, such as the root domain. Sub-domains, unlike domains, may be created quickly and inexpensively, and most web hosts should allow you to host the sites and sub-domains for free.

Sub-domains are frequently used as URLs for various parts of your website. Sub-domains, on the other hand, can be used to create new websites in the same way that top-level root domains can.

For instance: www.odmt.in is a root domain,

www.blog.odmt.in is a sub-domain of the root domain ODMT.
