This feature is only available for Limited and Pro users. This is free/included if you already own a domain -- you won't need to pay your domain registrar any additional fees. If you'd like us to connect your domain for you, send us the info here!

If you bought your domain from these registrars, see our tutorials here:
GoDaddy | Gandi | Network Solutions
- Inside the Strikingly editor, go to Settings -> Domains and enter the desired subdomain in the "Custom Domain/Subdomain" field and hit "Update".
- Login to your domain registrar and edit your domain host records (or "zone records").If you bought your domain from us, check out this tutorial.
- You need to create a CNAME record and point it to your subdomain URL + .s.strikinglydns.com.
Example:
Domain: yourname.com
Subdomain: info.yourname.com
CNAME: info
Host Value: info.yourname.com.s.strikinglydns.com - That's it! It's just like linking the "www" part for your domain, but without the domain forwarding!
It may take a few hours for these settings to propagate fully. Soon, your subdomain will point to your Strikingly site.
If your site doesn't go online after 24-28 hours, contact support@strikingly.com or chat with us and include a screenshot of your subdomain settings so we can help!
