Should I send emails from a subdomain or my main domain?

Your root domain is yoursite.com. A subdomain is like mail.yoursite.com — a separate "mailbox address" branching off your site.

Why it matters: sending from a subdomain protects your main website. If email reputation dips, your homepage isn't dragged down with it.

— Step 1: Just starting and sending a little? Your root domain is fine.
— Step 2: Planning regular marketing emails? Set up a sending subdomain to keep things separate.
— Step 3: ✅ Whatever you choose, set it up once and stick with it — don't keep switching.

Homework: decide your sending address now, before your list grows.
