Summary
In this video I walk through the whole process of adding a new sub‑domain to a hosting account and getting it live. I start by opening the Domains section of the control panel and locating the existing public_html folder. From there I click Create a new sub‑domain, type the name isabelle, choose the main domain spirhero.com, and confirm. The platform automatically suggests a document root – I verify that it points to public_html/isabelle.spirhero.com (sometimes shown as public_html/isabelle_spirhero_com). After the sub‑domain is created I go back to the File Manager, navigate to that new folder, and upload my website files – in the demo I only place an index.html file. I refresh the browser to see the new URL; initially it may still show a placeholder because the DNS entry has just been added. I then return to the Domains list, toggle the sub‑domain status to On, and explain that the DNS propagation can take about 20–30 minutes. No further action is required after that – the site will become reachable automatically. The video ends with a reminder that once the waiting period is over the sub‑domain should work without any extra steps.
