Creating a Portfolio - 1. Choose a Domain
Without further a do, let's create a portfolio.
Click on "Portfolios" menu item and click on
Create a new portfolio
button on the right hand side.
You will see a dialogue where you need to
select a domain for your new portfolio as displayed in
screenshot 1.
A portfolio is another website, which will be accessed via
a URL. So it's a good idea to select a domain for it.
If you have added a domain via "My Domains" page, you can select an existing domain from the drop down.
Or if you want to add another domain, you can just type it
in the text field.
You will also see an option where you can have your
parking page accessed via a prefix. A prefix to the
domain is often called sub-Domain.
An early convention
for domains was to assign www prefix to indicate that
the sub-domain www.mydomain.com was a World Wide Web page. This convention still exists
but many pages now have their root domain (i.e. without the prefix) as their primary domain.
Note that this is up to your preference. You can have
either "www" or any other prefix. But it's important
to keep things consistent.
Once you have decided how it is accessed,
Dub
will make sure that all traffic is directed via a
consistent URL format.
Once you have selected a domain and a prefix preference
you can click create to proceed to the next step.
