A while ago I had a question about a customer setting up a domain name ([webmasterworld.com ]). Ages later, in a completely unrelated circumstance, I've realised this might actually be a useful thing to do.

Say I have a site, with a URL of

customer1.example.com

That's fine, but if I wanted to provide a number of different services to that customer, could I do something like

customer1.service1.example.com

I'm just playing with ideas at the moment, but is this a really bad idea? I know it's technically possible, but are there going to be problems later on down the line?

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
