A subdomain is a web address, which is under a main, or a root domain. An example is something.domain.com, in which domain.com is the main domain address, while "something" is the subdomain below it. Each and every subdomain can have its own site and records i.e. apart from employing the domain name as part of the whole web address, a subdomain can be totally independent and also hosted by a separate service provider. Using a subdomain could be very useful if you want to have different sites which are related in some way. For instance, you can have an on-line store under the main domain along with a forum under a subdomain in order to offer means for your customers to ask questions or share experiences regarding your products. The main advantage of using a subdomain rather than a subfolder is that the web sites will be separated, so you are able to update one of them or perform maintenance without affecting the other.
