A subdomain is part of a web address that's under the main domain name, such as name.example.com. From a technical perspective, even in www.example.com the "www" element is a subdomain since the fully qualified domain name is only "example.com". Each subdomain could have its own website and records and can even be hosted through a different provider if you wish to use a certain feature that is not offered by your current provider. A good example for using a subdomain is if you have a business website and an online store under a subdomain where customers can purchase your products. You can even have a forum in which they can talk about the products and by employing subdomains as opposed to subfolders you'll avoid any risk of all sites going down when you perform maintenance, or update one of the site scripts. Keeping your sites separated is also less risky in the case of a script security breach.
