You can connect your blog to your own domain in three ways:

Subdirectory: example.com/blog

Subdomain: blog.example.com

Root Domain: example.com (direct connection)

A. Subdomain Connection

Enter the domain name you want to connect. This must be a pre-purchased domain. After clicking “Activate Custom Domain,” you will receive DNS setup instructions. Configure your DNS settings through your domain provider (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap), and the connection will be completed within 30 minutes.

B. Subdirectory / Subfolder Connection

💡

Subdirectory setup requires developer assistance.

Enter your pre-purchased domain name. Currently, only websites built with Next.js, Webflow, and Framer support subdirectory connections. After clicking “Activate Custom Domain,” you will receive a setup guide. Once the necessary code adjustments are made, the connection will be completed within 30 minutes.

C. Root Domain Connection

Enter the domain name you want to connect. This must be a pre-purchased domain. After clicking “Activate Custom Domain,” you will receive DNS setup instructions. Configure your DNS settings, and the connection will be completed within 30 minutes.
