installing wordpress to a subdomain
I have been reading the tutorials on installing wordpress to a subdomain or subdirectory so I can continue to have a visible premium website builder site active while I learn wordpress. thing is, not sure if subdirectory and subdomain is the same thing ? Should it be an extension of existing url - not sure how to type it what it should be called, the simple stuff ! Thanks so much, appreciate your help. wouldn't be visible right while am working on it ?

Hello Clare, Typically, a subdirectory is described a folder under a domain, such as example.com/wordpress. A subdomain is a way to name a division of a domain, wordpress.example.com. and usually points to a subdirectory (example.com/wordpress) So subdomains typically point to a subdirectory, but a subdirectory does not require a subdomain to point to it as it is accessible by itself. However, in your situation, I would use the subdomain for your wordpress. Create the subdomain via your cPanel first, then install your Wordpress to that subdomain. This makes it easier to access by using the subdomain name. Best Regards, Scott M |
