• Transfer your domain name to YorName.com; pay for the current year at a reasonable price, receive a free https, and be able to use it with a free SimDif website. 

• Link your name from an outside registrar; If you prefer to stick with your current registrar (for example, you have a personal email account with them, or you paid for the domain name for an extended period) you can link your domain name to SimDif. To do this you must upgrade to a Pro site.

• Choose and purchase a new domain name; Sometimes, a new site with a new domain can be an opportunity to rethink the brand or identity of your business or activity. If you register your new name with YorName.com, you can use it with any SimDif site, Starter (Free), Smart or Pro.

1. Login to your current provider to unlock your domain name.

2. Copy the AUTH or EPP code they provide.

3. In SimDif, go to the top right, yellow button and select "Site Address - Domain Name".

5. Use the button to go to YorName and follow the instructions to proceed with the transfer.

 • The transfer process may take up to 6 days.

 • Check your emails every day during this period.

6. Once the transfer has been completed you will receive an email.

If there is already a CNAME record attached to “www” when creating an A record for www:

• Delete the CNAME.

Make sure your site has been published at least once before you link it to your domain name.
