what is the meaning of domain. what is the difference between a domain, subdomain and folder. can I host subdomain and subfolder on different servers?
Hello The domain is like digital point.com and sub domain is like forums.digitalpoint .com and here forums is the subdomain... and folder is for exmple : digitalpoint. com/folder or digitalpoint. com/images here the folder images... your uestion is alittle bit amibguous... what d you mean by subfolder ? this? : www. exemple. com/folder/subfolder if that's your question i don't think that you can create a domain in a server and a subdomain in an other server ... because you set up the dns for one server..that's what i think.. but an htaccess file can help you redirection a domain..or a subdomain .. GOOD LUCK i hope this helps you...
Actually there is no strict meaning of each domain name at all. That could be abbreviation or part of the business name - everything.
Yes, as far as I know you can. www,.domain.com is a subdomain of domain.com. Mail.domain.com does not have to be on the same server or IP as domain.com. But if you use cPanel to create a subdomain it will create a folder that is used by that subdomain. It may be best to edit the DNS directly to create a subdomain if you want it hosted elsewhere.
