Understanding the Importance of Aliases

A domain alias, also known as an SPF (Subdomain Preference) or A record, allows you to point your website's subdomain to a different server. This is particularly useful for large websites with multiple subdomains.

Accessing Your Website's Configuration

To access your website's configuration, log in to your web hosting control panel (such as cPanel or Plesk). Look for the settings related to your domain and subdomain. You may need to navigate through multiple pages to find it.

Adding an Alias to Your Domain

To add a missing domain as an alias, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your web hosting control panel.
2. navigate to the settings related to your domain and subdomain.
3. Look for the "Alias" or "Subdomain Preference" section.
4. "Add a new alias" or "Create a new subdomain preference" option.
5. Enter your desired subdomain and domain.
