  I recently brought and registered the domain “colourandsound.net” through wordpress.com for my blog.

  I wish to create a subdomain “blog.colourandsound.net” to host another wordpress blog.
  Is it possible to create a subdomain of a the “colourandsound.net” domain which I registered through wordpress, or does wordpress not support creating subdomains.

  Please help, I have been working on a solution for close to 2 days now, and it appears that they only way I can create a subdomain is if I cancel wordpress domain and go through a host such as bluehost.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  By the way, once you register a domain with one registrar, you can’t transfer it to a different registrar for 60 days. This is not a WordPress.com policy, but ICANN policy.
