A subdomain is a part of a web address that's under the main domain, for example name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Every subdomain can have its own website and records and can also be hosted using a different provider if you wish to use some feature which isn't provided by your current provider. An illustration for using a subdomain is if you have a company site as well as an online store under a subdomain where customers can purchase your products. In addition, you can have a forum in which they can comment on the products and by using subdomains as opposed to subfolders you are going to avoid any chance of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your sites separated is also less risky in case there is a script security breach.
