How To Add A Subdomain To Godaddy

Add a subdomain to my Linux Hosting account

Subdomains allow you create memorable addresses and easy means to access areas of your website. For instance, you could create a subdomain for pictures on your site called "pics" that is accessible through the URLs "pics.coolexample.com" and "www.coolexample.com/pics".

There are a few things to know about using subdomains:

A subdomain must be a subdomain of some other domain name on your Linux Hosting business relationship - for example, if you lot've got "coolexample.com", you can add together "pics.coolexample.com".
Subdomain website files are stored in a different directory than the main domain website files.

Go to your GoDaddy production page.
Under Web Hosting, next to the Linux Hosting account you lot want to use, click Manage.
In the business relationship Dashboard, click cPanel Admin.
In the cPanel Abode page, in the Domains section, click Subdomains.
In the cPanel Subdomains page, enter just the Subdomain name - for example pics.
Brand sure the main Domain is selected.
Leave the Document Root set to the default. This keeps the subdomain files in a separate directory from the main domain files.
Note: If you lot know that you want the subdomain files to be in a dissimilar directory than the default, change the Document Root.
Click Create. cPanel creates the subdomain and it appears in the Modify a Subdomain list.
