Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A subdomain is a prefix added to a domain name to separate a section of your website. Site owners primarily use subdomains to manage extensive sections that require their own content hierarchy, such as online stores, blogs or support platforms. Subdomains function as a separate website from its domain.

Detailed explanation-2: -While a subdomain will appear before your TLD, a subdirectory link will include the subdirectory name after the original TLD. For example: Subdomain example: mysubdomain.mywebsite.com. Subdirectory example: mywebsite.com/mysubdirectory.

Detailed explanation-3: -In the Domain Name System (DNS) hierarchy, a subdomain is a domain that is a part of another (main) domain. For example, if a domain offered an online store as part of their website example.com, it might use the subdomain shop.example.com .

Detailed explanation-4: -A common subdomain is ‘www’ and often simply a specific directory on the server. Subdomains are commonly used to separate distinct functions of a website, such as a blog, shop, or member’s only area. It’s an extension of the primary domain that’s dedicated to a specific function or purpose.
