Create a Subdomain

Before you can install WordPress on a subdomain, you first need to create the actual subdomain via your hosting dashboard.

To do this in cPanel, look for the Subdomains tool in the Domains section:

On the next screen, enter your desired subdomain in the Subdomain box and also select the parent domain via the Domain drop-down. There’s no need to add a dot after the subdomain – just enter the text you want to use.

For example, to create blog.elementor.com, you would configure it like so:

Then, click Create.
