Please forgive me (and please correct) if I misuse jargon and terminology -- web hosting, administration, etc. is new to me.
Say I want to host a site at each of the following addresses:
http://www.aexample.com
http://aexample.com
http://www.a.example.com
http://a.example.com
I would like the underlying content to be the same at each address.
Questions:
- What is the proper approach to achieve this?
- How many (and which) domains do I need to own? This is the crux of my confusion: Do I have to own
example.com
andaexample.com
to achievea.example.com
or can I just add the subdomain? - What is the proper forwarding | redirecting | aliasing to be completed?
