Hello, Thank you for contacting us about setting up a subdomain blog for your Shopify store. First, create the subdomain in your cPanel. Such as: store.example.com You can then install blogging software using Softaculous, I recommend using WordPress. Be sure to choose your new subdomain during the installation. Alernately, if you want to just use a subdomain to point to your shopify store, it is covered in their guide here.
  1. You will need to create a cname record, such as: Name: store.example.com CNAME: example-name.myshopify.com
  2. Create an a record for the subdomain that points to Shopify's IP address, such as: Name: store.eample.com Address: 23.227.38.32
If you have any further questions, feel free to post them below. Thank you, John-Paul
