For example, wordpress.com, blogger.com allow you to use your own domains with their application. This proceed as,

1. You create a blog at whatever.blogspot.com

2. You point a CNAME from your domain say mycname.mysite.com to ghs.google.com

3. The dns changes propgate and you can access your blog at mycname.mysite.com

So what can I do to enable users to use their own domains, with my application, which will be on a subdomain on mysite?
