    Hello. For all you GoDaddy users, does anyone know where I can register keyword.domain.com on GoDaddy?

    For example, if my website domain was www.domain.com, and I wanted people to be able to go to an About page...

    where could I register an: http://about.domain.com

    thanks in advance and sorry if this has already been asked. oh and I am using goDaddy.

    You don't need to register that.

    You do that through your webhost's cpanel or whatever.

    The only time it gets tricky is if the subdomain has a different host from the www version. (I'm working on one of those at the moment, it does happen ;))

    When you set up your webhosting you'll be given a control panel. Your web developer may have access to it but technically there will be some interface - or pick up the phone and talk to your webhost.

    They will be able to set up the subdomain for you.

    Once you own a domain you can create as many subdomains as you like.
    The only limit will be your hosting agreement (and $$$ can fix that problem)

    Oops, never mind. I found it using help. I forgot that they were called subdomains. :S
