A custom domain is a unique, branded web address for your business. Instead of a generic URL, customers see an address that looks professional and is easy to remember.
Warning: Custom domains are only available on the Launch, Plus, and Growth plans. Upgrade your plan to get one.
What is a custom domain?
For example, UENI's custom domain is ueni.com, and Google's is google.com.
When you sign up with UENI, your website gets a default UENI address. If your business is called Alex Plants, it starts as alexplants.ueniweb.com. With a custom domain, it could be alexplants.com. Removing the ".ueniweb.com" part is what makes a custom domain stand out.
Note: Each UENI subscription plan includes a free custom domain.
Why is a custom domain important?
A custom domain is one of the first steps to a strong online presence. It helps you:
Strengthen your brand identity
Make your website easier to remember
Compete with other businesses
Build credibility with customers
Improve your SEO ranking
Select your custom domain
Once your website is built, enter your preferred address in the domain search box on the main tab of your UENI Hub. See the step-by-step instructions, or watch the video below.
What if I already own a custom domain?
You can connect a domain you already own to your UENI website at no extra cost on all our plans. See how to connect an existing domain.
Pro tip: You can also choose a new custom domain with UENI while keeping your existing one connected, so several domains point to your website.
