Where do I build my updated website?

It’s really up to you.

As a developer, I prefer working locally but if you do not develop but only add/remove/update themes and plugins, then a subdomain can be great.

This way, you can freely break your website without disturbing anyone.

Nowadays, lots of hosts providers are offering to create staging website in one click.

Regards
