What is a custom domain?

A custom domain is the memorable name people use to find your website, such as claras-flowers.com. Behind the scenes, every website sits at a string of numbers, but a domain gives it a name that humans can actually remember and trust. When you register a domain, it becomes yours to point at wherever your site lives.

It matters because your domain is often the first thing a customer sees, on a business card, an Instagram bio, or a Google result. A tidy, branded address like claras-flowers.com looks far more professional than a long, generic builder link, and it tells people you take your business seriously. It also stays with you if you ever change how your site is built. If Clara runs a flower shop, sending customers to claras-flowers.com is clearer and more trustworthy than a random subdomain. Pair it with an SSL certificate and reliable web hosting and you have the foundation of a credible online presence.
