Primary vs Secondary Domains - Best Practice?

SOLVE

We manage a selection of domains. One is the main company website, but we have others for more other purposes, such as homepages for partnerships, research pages, and more. One of the partnership pages has its own mailing list.

 

Does anyone ahve recommendations for should I connect this partnership page, which is a bit of a subbrand, as a primary domain or a secondary domain? What would best practice suggest?

 

My thanks in advance for your advice.

Primary vs Secondary Domains - Best Practice?

Hi @nigeld27 

 

If you need/want to host content on HubSpot for the parnership page/sub-brand, then you would need to add it is as secondary domain (requires Marketing or CMS Enterprise).

 

If you just need to track visits on external content, you could embded the HubSpot tracking code and add the domain as an additional tracking domain. 

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks for this Phil! 

 

What if we just want to send emails from an additional domain, but don't need to host any content there?

 

Thanks,
