One of the most exciting features in WordPress is the ability to create subdomains, which are essentially smaller versions of your main website. Subdomains can be used to create separate sections of your website, host a cutting-edge blog, or even create a brand new website on the same domain. Keep reading to learn more about the process of setting up a subdomain in WordPress. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Choose_a_Subdomain_Name\"><\/span>Step 1: Choose a Subdomain Name<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p> Before you can start the installation process, you need to choose a unique and memorable name for your subdomain. This name should be easy to remember and should not conflict with any other subdomains or sites on the internet. For instance, if your main website is www.example.com, you could have a subdomain like blog.example.com, news.example.com, or shop.example.com. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Create_a_Subdomain_in_Your_Hosting_Account\"><\/span>Step 2: Create a Subdomain in Your Hosting Account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The next step is to create a subdomain in your hosting account. This may vary depending on your hosting provider, but most hosting control panels have a section that is focused on creating subdomains. If you have any difficulty, don&#8217;t hesitate to get in touch with your hosting provider for assistance. <\/p>\n<p>To create a subdomain, you will need to choose the name of the subdomain you&#8217;re creating, then specify the folder where its files will be stored. By default, the subdomain folder will be created in the \/public_html\/ directory, but you can choose where you want it to go. It may take a few minutes for the newly created subdomain to become active. <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Install_WordPress_on_the_Subdomain\"><\/span>Step 3: Install WordPress on the Subdomain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now that you&#8217;ve created the subdomain, you need to put WordPress on this puppy. To do this, you must log into your hosting account and tread to the section where you can install WordPress, bearing in mind the ease of using one-click installation options many hosting providers offer. <\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve installed WordPress on the subdomain, it&#8217;s time to log in to the WordPress dashboard, so you can configure your new subdomain just the way you like it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Configure_the_Subdomain\"><\/span>Step 4: Configure the Subdomain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now, the subdomain is set up, and WordPress is installed\u2014 here&#8217;s where the real fun comes in. Configuring the subdomain typically involves five different stages:<\/p>\n<li> 1. Choosing a Theme: WordPress comes with a variety of themes, and you can pick one that will serve your taste(s) and customize the appearance of your subdomain. You can choose either a free or paid theme, depending on your preferences.<\/li>\n<li> 2. Installing Plugins: Whether it is to manage your website or add additional feature\/functionality, WordPress plugins are pieces of software, and you can choose to install the one(s) you desire.<\/li>\n<li>3. Creating Content: Create pages, posts, and other relevant content on the subdomain as you would on your main website. Showcase your products, create a forum, host a blog or any other content you want your visitors to experience.\n<li>4. Setting up Menus: Menus are created to help visitors navigate your subdomain, especially if it has multiple pages.<\/li>\n<li>5. Configuring Settings: You can configure various subdomain settings like the site title, tagline, and other options.<\/li>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Preview_and_Launch_the_Subdomain\"><\/span>Step 5: Preview and Launch the Subdomain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After configuring your subdomain, it&#8217;s essential to preview and make necessary changes you might need. You can preview the subdomain by navigating to the subdomain URL in your browser. If everything is in order, you can launch the subdomain and start promoting it to your visitors.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Creating subdomains in WordPress can be an amazing way to host a blog or section and still organize your website while creating one under the same domain.
