To create a subdomain in Webflow, follow these steps:

  1. Login to your Webflow account and go to the Dashboard.
  2. Select the project you want to add a subdomain to.
  3. Click on the "Hosting" tab in the top navigation bar.
  4. In the Hosting panel, scroll down to the "Subdomains" section.
  5. Click on the "Add Subdomain" button.
  6. Enter the desired subdomain name in the input field. For example, if you want to create a subdomain called "blog", enter "blog" in the field.
  7. Choose the domain you want to add the subdomain to from the drop-down list. This will be the main domain associated with your Webflow project.
  8. Click on the "Add Subdomain" button to complete the process.

Once the subdomain is added, you will need to update your DNS settings to point the subdomain to Webflow's servers. This involves creating a CNAME record with your domain registrar or DNS provider and pointing it to the subdomain target provided by Webflow. This step is necessary for the subdomain to work correctly.

Please note that subdomains in Webflow require a Site or CMS Hosting plan. If you are on a Free or Lite plan, you will need to upgrade to a higher plan to access subdomain functionality.
