For example, if you create a subdomain named subdomain1.example.com and have it associated to ./public_html/subdomain1/ then the contents of that directory can be web accessable in bith ways now... /http://subdomain1.example.com/ and /http://example.com/subdomain1/ If you would rather not have the contents of subdomain1 be accessible through the main domain name, it would be nice to simply create instead an Add-on Domain through the Cpanel interface and enter for the "New Domain Name" = subdomain1.example.com, but the Cpanel interface will not allow that. You can however, make a whole new domain name using the subdomain1.example.com name, just remember to make the appropriate A-record in the DNS of example.com.
