How to create subdomains and redirects in cPanel
Subdomains are useful for separating areas of your website, such as blog, shop, portal or staging. In cPanel, open Domains or Subdomains, enter the subdomain name and choose the document root folder. Upload the site files into that folder or install an application there. Redirects are used when visitors should be sent from one address to another. Open Redirects in cPanel, choose the domain, enter the path and add the destination URL. Use permanent redirects for moved pages. Always test redirects after saving to avoid loops, broken links or sending visitors to the wrong page.
