Dividing a website into subdomains makes it more structured and easier for visitors to navigate. This practice is often adopted by SEO specialists to improve a site’s visibility in search engines (SEO for search engine optimization).

By segmenting a website in this way, it’s possible to insert relevant keywords into the URLs of the different sections. It’s also possible to secure a subdomain using an .htaccess file, regardless of the CMS (content management system) used, whether it’s WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, or PrestaShop for an e-commerce site.
