    A subdomain shares your domain, but adds a third-level domain and can function like a whole separate website. Subdomains have domain names that look like blog.mysite.com. Plesk manages each subdomain as if it were its own website. You can create a completely different look and feel on a subdomain. Creating subdomains is useful if you want to have an online store, blog, or forum. You can create as many subdomains as you want on a main domain.

    To make sure you can restore your website if something goes wrong, you should have periodic backups scheduled. Sometimes you’ll want to manually back up a website in addition to your automatic backups. For instance, if you’re going to make large changes to the website, it’s a good idea to back up your website just in case something goes wrong. That way, you can restore an old version of your website while your developer figures out the problem. It’s also a good idea to create a backup if you’re going to make major changes to your server. We recommend downloading a backup right before you make major changes to your website. This ensures your backup has the most up-to-date website information. It’s easy to back up a website or even your whole server using Plesk!
