How can I redirect with address text that comes before the website name? (e.g. to make my.website.com redirect somewhere else)



Create the subdomain on your host, then point it in the settings in your host (or hosting software) direct it to the appropriate location.

First you will have to create the subdomain. Once done, place an appropriate html or php index file in the subdomain's directory which will redirect the user to the appropriate url.

No no no. He wants an HTTP redirect. DNS cannot do HTTP redirects - it only affiliates names -> IP addresses. Only a thing that speaks HTTP (a web server) can do this.

Actually you can configure the DNS to route, but it's not simple config, it's more advanced settings. 
OP, Either do a 301 redirect via your cPanel/host account (usually where you can manage your domains at in your hosting acct), a plugin in your WordPress admin dashboard, or .htaccess (make sure to backup current one before making changes). Also that bit of text before the URL (the part that replaces the traditional www) is called a subdomain. That should help you out when googling things.
