I think we should be able to support subdomain hosting fine if your main site can handle the DNS challenges around it.

One could tweak out a single copy of concrete5 to support many subdomains out of one install, but that's not going to happen in our shared hosting environment. We can talk about a custom server for that, or for a low volume it probably makes sense to just point individual subdomains to unique hosting environments.

Ok, thanks.

So just to expand on the mechanics a bit, what's the sequence of events?

At a guess:

I elect to host with Concrete5 and enter my payment details.

I specify the domain I want to manage. Is this entered ashttp://www.testdomain.com or testdomain.com or subdomain.testdomain.com?

I change the DNS entry a my current registrar / free host to point where?

If this is all explained in detail somewhere else, I'd be greatful for a pointer. If not, I'd have to ask "why not?" I can't be the only person who hesistates at the point of paying when the process is unclear.

enter it as subdomain.domain.com

we'll help you through the rest.

its not written up somewhere else because you're the first person to ask.

Ok, signed up. I'll follow through the standard instructions first, and shout if anything seems unclear.

Thanks
