Today we’re helping out Chris B. He’s looking to test a salespage on the web just as so many online entrepreneurs have. He has a website, but the idea of buying a new domain name for every idea you have can be costly, so in order to test the waters of a product idea and salespage he’d like to set up a sub domain. Sub domains are mostly free and are used for secondary sections or projects under a main website.
A sub domain is exactly what it sounds like, a group of files that are underneath a directory of another. In the internet world, a sub domain looks like this, https://SUBDOMAIN.maindomain.com. Most of the time sub domains do not require tricky set up. Don’t be confused, we aren’t redirecting or re-routing anything. A sub domain is an address with your main domain in it.
this is something i should explore. i will assume it can also be used for creating an internal blog.
even with a different structure? i use networksolutions for my site hosting, and will explore it there.
not ready yet, but now feel confident in a way i can expand.
thanks Rob for the post. tons of good info here.
