How Subdomains Are Used in Gemini HQ
What’s happening
During setup in Gemini HQ, you may see or be asked to configure subdomains for pages, funnels, or email sending.
This is normal and part of how Gemini HQ keeps different functions organized and protected.
Subdomains are often introduced during onboarding, domain connection, or email verification.
Why this happens
Subdomains allow Gemini HQ to separate key functions while still operating under your main domain.
This separation:
Protects your main domain’s reputation
Improves email deliverability
Keeps website traffic, funnels, and email activity from interfering with each other
Adds an extra layer of security and control
Each subdomain serves a specific purpose rather than mixing everything under one root domain.
What to check
Confirm which subdomain is assigned to pages versus email sending and that DNS records match the intended use.
Before assuming there is an issue, confirm the following:
Which subdomain is assigned to websites or funnels
Which subdomain is assigned to email sending
DNS records (CNAME, SPF, DKIM, DMARC) match the intended function
Records were added to the correct domain or subdomain
DNS changes have had enough time to propagate
Most verification issues come from records being added to the wrong place.
Example
Using mail.yourdomain.com or send.yourdomain.com for email sending keeps your email reputation separate from your main website traffic.
If email issues occur, they do not impact your primary domain or website performance.
This separation is intentional and recommended.
What this does NOT mean
This does not mean:
You are creating multiple websites
Your brand is being split
Visitors see different domains unexpectedly
Emails are being sent from a random address
Subdomains remain fully connected to your primary domain.
