You can give your counties away. select a "vassal" or a guy from your court that likes you and give him a title (the county you wanna give away)
If its cities etc, you can give it away by right clicking on its portait and select create new vassal.

Holdings you give away by going to diplomacy with a character then clicking transfer vassal.

Does giving it to someone from your own dynasty have any effect, or could you just give it to anybody whos not a rival? Or maybe they could become a rival over time?

You can give it to anyone, but people in your dynasty will have a small boost in their opinion of you because of your family ties. Plus, I like to strengthen and spread my dynasty as much as possible, its one of the most fun parts of the game. Of course, family members can certainly become rebellious, especially when your ruler dies and they contest the claims of the new ruler.
Good point. Also as a side note dynasty members could also marry into other counties which might produce heirs for your dynasty outside of your realm. It would also be a way of spreading your influence as alliance as well, and perhaps inherit something. Complicated stuff, but lotsa possible outcomes here i think.
