namespace CreateSubtype
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://<servername>"))
            {
                SPServiceContext context = SPServiceContext.GetContext(site);
                ProfileSubtypeManager psm = ProfileSubtypeManager.Get(context);
 
                // create a user profile subtype
                psm.CreateSubtype("Consultant", "Consultant Subtype", ProfileType.User);
 
                // create an organization profile subtype
                psm.CreateSubtype("Vendor", "Vendor Subtype", ProfileType.Organization);
