Subfinder – A New Tool to Discover Subdomains for Websites

Today, we will present a new tool for gathering information to identify subdomains linked to a particular domain.

The subdomains that should be “blog.kalilinuxtutorials.com” and “store.kalilinuxtutorials.com” are subdomains of the “kalilinuxtutorials.com” domain.

What is Subdomain?

Subdomains are created as subsets of the primary domain name to help organize and navigate different website sections.

The primary use of subdomains for site owners is to manage extensive sections of their website that require a distinct content hierarchy, such as online stores, blogs, or support platforms.
