Managing the Subdomains for Your Domain Name

rigister now!   
Subdomains are extensions of your domain name that you can forward to URLs or point to IP addresses and directories in your hosting account. For example, if your domain name is coolexample.com, you can add subdomain.coolexample.com and point it to a specific Web site in a subdirectory of your hosting account.
You can add up to 90 subdomains per domain name. You can also add multiple levels of subdomains. For example, you can add another.subdomain.coolexample.com. Each subdomain can be up to 25 characters long.
