How do I setup a subdomain?

Thanks to cPanel, this task has been made easier than ever and can be achieved as follows:

1. Login to your control panel (http://www.your domain .com:2082)
2. Select Sub Domains
3. Enter the name of your new sub domain
4. Hit "Add"

Your new sub domain is now ready for use. To find it, login to your "main web directory" through your control panel by selecting "File Manager " or simply use your favorite FTP client. You'll see it listed as another directory. Upload your files to this directory to upload content for that subdomain. For example, if you created shop.ucg.ae, then a directory called shop is what you'll be looking for.

All sub domains are created with their own independent cgi-bin. This means your new sub domain operates independently of everything else, and is almost like having a whole new domain.
