subdomain name question

[carloola]

hello guys! i want to ask about subdomain names. for example i purchased a domain name from other providers, then im using x10 free hosting. let's say my domain name is carloolaguer.com, so i used that, what if i make a subdomain from x10host, can i put let's say blog.carloolaguer.com?

EDIT: to clarify, let's say i purchased example.com from different provider, and used x10 free hosting, will I be able to make a subdomain name such as blog.example.com using x10free hosting? if yes, do i simply input "blog.example.com" and it will work?

If you mean only having the sub-domain added (add-on or parked domain) then that's possible.

You'll have to create a CNAME record in your registrar with the name 'blog' and pointing to the IP of the X10 server you would be using (not name server). After that, make sure you have the name servers there and try adding the sub-domain.

What X10 server are you using? (Ex. xo4)
