How do I set up new-fishing.boats.com on my server

Hi,

I have been running VM pro for some time now and on some of my sites I now want to set up this kind of naming:

Assume that I own www.boats.com (wish I did !).

I want to set up:
new-fishing.boats.com
and
used-fishing.boats.com

This is good for se search results.

How do I set this up ?

seems to me you would need to own boats.com first to create a subdomain/server on it

or register new-fishing-boats.com if available

Yeah, that’s no problem – let’s say you’ve added boats.com as a Virtual Server.

You’d just create a sub-server, called buying-new.boats.com.

That would allow you to setup that sub-domain, and any other number of domains, underneath that particular Virtual Server.

So once you create the boats.com Virtual Server, you’d go into Create Virtual Server, click “sub-server” on the top, and go from there.

Opps - sorry maybe I wasn’t too clear.

I was just using boats.com as an example.

So lets just say I do own www.boats.com and I want
to set up a blog about maintaining used boats on:
maintenance-used.boats.com

and a different blog about buying new boats on:
buying-new.boats.com

May later I will other blogs centered around water-ski.boats.com
etc etc.
