This is where <strong data-start=\"276\" data-end=\"293\">Addon Domains<\/strong> and <strong data-start=\"298\" data-end=\"312\">Subdomains<\/strong> come in.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"323\" data-end=\"445\">In this step-by-step guide, <a href=\"https:\/\/zuumhost.com\/\">Zuumhost<\/a> explains what they are, how they differ, and how to create them easily inside cPanel.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1sb49ad\" data-start=\"452\" data-end=\"479\">What Is an Addon Domain?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"481\" data-end=\"580\">An <a href=\"https:\/\/zuumhost.com\/blog\/\"><strong data-start=\"484\" data-end=\"500\">Addon Domain<\/strong><\/a> allows you to host an entirely separate website under the same hosting account.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"582\" data-end=\"618\">For example, if your main domain is:<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"620\" data-end=\"635\"><code data-start=\"620\" data-end=\"635\">mywebsite.com<\/code><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"637\" data-end=\"670\">You can add another website like:<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"672\" data-end=\"688\"><code data-start=\"672\" data-end=\"688\">mybusiness.com<\/code><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"672\" data-end=\"688\">Both sites will run independently but share the same hosting plan.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"170xuhb\" data-start=\"758\" data-end=\"784\">Why Use Addon Domains?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"785\" data-end=\"820\">Addon domains are perfect when you:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"821\" data-end=\"974\">\n<li data-section-id=\"1m13241\" data-start=\"821\" data-end=\"849\">Manage multiple websites<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"17558s8\" data-start=\"850\" data-end=\"878\">Run websites for clients<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"tgy4x\" data-start=\"879\" data-end=\"929\">Launch new projects without buying new hosting<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"16vwr38\" data-start=\"930\" data-end=\"974\">Want separate websites under one account<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"5oz90v\" data-start=\"981\" data-end=\"1004\">What Is a Subdomain?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1006\" data-end=\"1089\">A <strong data-start=\"1008\" data-end=\"1021\">Subdomain<\/strong> is a subsection of your main website that uses your primary domain.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1091\" data-end=\"1100\">Examples:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1176\">\n<li data-section-id=\"5s5o00\" data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1125\"><code data-start=\"1103\" data-end=\"1123\">blog.mywebsite.com<\/code><\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"1a9hazm\" data-start=\"1126\" data-end=\"1150\"><code data-start=\"1128\"

data-end=\"1176\">support.mywebsite.com<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1178\" data-end=\"1264\">Subdomains are often used to organize content or create special sections of a website.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1fq6qf1\" data-start=\"1266\" data-end=\"1292\">When to Use Subdomains<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1293\" data-end=\"1318\">Subdomains are great for:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1422\">\n<li data-section-id=\"abirro\" data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1347\">Blogs or knowledge bases<\/li>\n<li data-section-id=\"fiy497\" data-start=\"1348\" data-end=\"1365\">Online
