A subdomain is part of a web address which is under the main domain, for example name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" part is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is just "example.com". Each subdomain can have its own site and records and can even be hosted through a different company if you need to use a certain feature that isn't offered by your current service provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a business website along with an online store under a subdomain where clients can acquire your products. You can even have a forum in which they can comment on the products and by employing subdomains instead of subfolders you will avoid any risk of all websites going down if you perform maintenance, or update one of the website scripts. Keeping the websites separated is more secure in case there is a script security breach.
