You install a Message Board and put in in a directory called mysite.com/board/.You can turn the directory board into a sub-domain by adding it as a sub-domain from your Control Panel.Now you can access your Message board as either mysite.com/board OR board.mysite.comThis costs you nothing and is free.Parked DomainYou have two domains mysite.com and my-other-site.com.mysite.com is the domain of your website and you want to add my-other-site.com.You want them both to go to the same place. In other words, when someone types eitherwww.mysite.com or www.my-other-site.com they will go to the same page(s) on your website.In order to have additional parked domains you need to purchase them from a registry.Register Parked domains here (open a new account if you don't have one registered)Add-On DomainsYou have two domains mysite.com and my-other-site.com.You want the two domains to be totally separate/independent websites.In order to have additional add-on domains you need to purchase them from a registry.Register Add-on domains here (open a new account if you don't have one registered)
