I have 365 family subscription. I already have an email with a personal domain registered under the 365 account. I'm looking for the most efficient way to have MS host another (different) domain for another email address. From what I've been able to find, I can only have a single domain under a 365 account (although each 365 user can have an address on that domain). Is this correct?
Also, assuming that is true, it appears that the best way for me to have MS host an additional custom domain email is to add an Exchange online (plan 1) account for a single user. Does that sound like a correct solution? I assume this exchange account will act as a separate account from 365. Should I expect any difficulties when adding that exchange hosted, custom domain email address on outlook desktop under the 365 account?
Thanks for any thoughts

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Ok, was able to talk to a MS rep. sounds like exchange online is the equivalent to bluehost, liquid web, etc. the $4/mo is competitive with the others and is cheaper than the $6 through GoDaddy who hosts the domain. they all allow a bunch of aliases under a single seat, so that gives me some growth room as well.
thanks again for the help

I am an Exchange Plan 1 subscriber at the company where I work. I'm hosting 1 custom domain but there is an option to add more custom domains or sign up for a new domain name. I'm not sure if it costs extra to host multiple custom domains.
Referring to your post that says this:
>> I'm not very familiar with exchange so not sure if it works differently in some way versus a 365 hosted email
I'm not familiar with other Microsoft 365 products but I believe all mail hosting services (offered by Microsoft) use Exchange servers. It is their own product. You may not realize your existing mailbox(es) is (are) hosted on Exchange servers right now.
