Subdomains
Subdomain Hunting
When hunting down subdomains you are looking for developer or staging versions of a site, or admin login pages that are not public or easily found on the internet.
Website tools are not the best way to scan for subdomains, but you can try google and a couple others to see if anything interesting shows up.
