✅ Step-by-Step: Create a Subdomain in Hostinger

1. Log in to Hostinger
   • Go to https://hpanel.hostinger.com/ and log in to your Hostinger account.
2. Go to the Website’s hPanel
   • From the dashboard, find your domain and click “Manage”.
3. Navigate to Subdomains
   • In the left sidebar or under the “Domains” section, click on “Subdomains”.
4. Create the Subdomain
   • Fill in the following:
     • Subdomain: Enter the prefix you want (e.g., blog, shop, dev).
     • Domain: Select the main domain (e.g., example.com).
     • Document Root: This will be auto-filled (e.g., /public_html/blog), or you can customize it.
   • Click “Create”.
5. Wait for DNS Propagation
   • It may take a few minutes (up to 24 hours) for DNS to propagate, though it usually works within minutes.

Let me know if you want to link a subdomain to an external service (e.g., Shopify, Webflow, etc.), or set up DNS manually.
