Hello.
This is a couple of related questions, please bear with me : )
I have read all the help material regarding setting dedicated subdomains, have set them in the past, but I have a specific “which is better setup” question because domain structure in this case below, is a bit new to me.
Context
I have a website (shop) which is running on a subdomain, lets say:
shop.mybrand.com (on this url is basically box with language selector, where you can select language and enter the particular webstore in selected language)
shop.mybrand.com/de (this is the store for germans, as an example. Different langs are in different sub-folders. ALL languages are on same subdomain just with different lang sub-folders, example: shop.mybrand.com/it would be for italian visitors).
mybrand.com (this is root domain, but if you open it in browser, it is “blank page” as it conatins no content)
Question 1
I currently wish to install Klaviyo for 1 “market” only, lets say for Germany. And once integration happens, I would like Klaviyo to only “collect” past behaviour, emails and profiles from users on German sub-folder site only: shop.mybrand.com/de
My guess is that in order to achieve this, I need to set up scripts to trigger only on this particular site (shop.mybrand.com/de) and not on mybrand.com and other lang instances? Is my assumption correct? (In the long run, I would like to create separate Klaviyo accounts for each lang site).
Question 2
I would like to set-up dedicated sending subdomain. For this I need to enter root domain and define a subdomain (sending domain) such as send.mybrand.com.
Here is the tricky part(s):
In the root domain field of the domains & hosting setting, which is better to use:
- mybrand.com (actual root domain, but without any real content if opened in browser)
- shop.mybrand.com (subdomain which is actually used for all shops in all languages)
The goal is to have optimal deliverability predispositions.
Question 3
Which is better to use in the send domain field:
- send.mybrand.com
- send.shop.mybrand.com
Again, goal is to have optimal setup support for great deliverability.
Question 4
What would be the optimal sending address (without focusing on the prefix):
- info@mybrand.com
- info@shop.mybrand.com
- does not matter regarding deliverability
Additional info: subjectively writing, shorter sendname would be better, as it only contains the brand without the shop part. But I am not sure, if choosing one over another impacts (technically) the deliverability.
Appreciate your thoughts on this one!
