Subdomains are one of the best tools a website developer could have, and with cPanel, creating them is easier than ever. Subdomains are a domain name that is part of another domain. You have probably run across quite a few without even knowing it. Ever been to an online store, or a blog that is part of a larger website? They were probably subdomains.
With a Subdomain, you can build a fully unique website within your main one. This could be a store, or it could be a place for you to build a website. In this video, we will show you to easily create a subdomain using the cPanel in your HostGator account.
Ready To Start Your Website
One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers and website owners is they don’t know how to install the software. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch.
This technology barrier has now been removed thanks to HostGator’s new 1 Click WordPress Install feature. However, if you still feel a bit antsy about doing the install, then let me do it for you.
To get the free WordPress installation service, all you have to do is order a web hosting plan from HostGator. Then forward me the login information to johnchow [at] johnchow.com and I’ll install WordPress for you. Afterwards, I’ll email you back the login information for your new WordPress blog and you can start blogging!
