How do I add a domain to my cPanel account?

First of all, it's important to note the difference between Sub Domains and Addon Domains

Sub Domains

A few examples of a sub domain for yourdomain.tld would be:

members.yourdomain.tld
admin.yourdomain.tld
gallery.yourdomain.tld

Notice how the only difference is the beginning part of the domain, the rest is all the same.

mydomain.tld
newdomain.tld

Notice how the domains are completely different.
