    Unlimited domain does not mean unlimited domain names.

    You simply create another folder in the root and just install your new cms or whatever in it. Then you access it by typing your domain name + your folder's name in your browser so for example if your new folder is folder and your domain is domain.com, your url to access it will be www.domain.com/folder

    Go into your cPanel and under the Domains section, select Add On Domains. Put in the other domain name and enter the same username and password of your cPanel. Then you will need to change the nameservers at your domain registrar (like GoDaddy) to the same nameservers for your hosting account.

    You will then see the new website show up as another folder but people will access it by typing in the second url. You can also install WordPress for that website through cPanel (Fantastico) if you want.

      Yes, Addon domains is what you are looking for. In your hosting account check the help section and look for videos showing how to setup an addon domain. It's pretty simple to do.
