Does it make sense to change the address for the admin panel?

Hello friends! There is a site for users site.com, and there is an admin panel with the address site.com/adm .
I know that such things should be located on different servers from different hosts, but in this case, when everything is located at one host, does it make sense to mask the entrance to the admin panel with a different address?

It makes sense to mask the minimum with at least one static URI argument.
(or limit by IP, which is not always convenient).
In general, it is better to defend so that this argument depends on time.
For example, use TOTP with binding to this argument and "kill 2 birds with one stone":
1. to open the admin login page.
2. to login

A separate domain and filtering by ip is more than enough

Hm. And how do you split the same site without any perversions in the form of database synchronization and content replication into two different servers from different hosts? And most importantly why?

Disguise. But this is not a panacea.
