If you'd like a custom email address to go along with your new domain, we offer a 15 day free trial of our email hosting service. We also offer up to 20 forwarding addresses per domain, free of charge.
Check out our guide, Hosted email vs. email forwarding, to decide which option is right for you.
If you've decided to host with one of the many popular site builders, such as Squarespace or Github Pages, our Quick Connect option will help you connect your website to your domain in no time flat.
See our handy articles on how to connect to Squarespace and Github Pages.
If you're using a hosting provider not covered by Quick Connect, you can still connect using A records, or nameservers. Contact your web host for the records they require and follow our guides on how to set them up:
