Yes. We can register and transfer only some domain extensions (the ending, such as .com or .photography). If yours isn't listed, register it with another company that offers it, then use it with EverWeb + Hosting. Your website and email work the same way.
Use your domain with EverWeb + Hosting
- Register the domain with a registrar (a company that sells domains) that offers your extension. If you already own it, skip this step.
- Order EverWeb + Hosting. When asked about a domain, choose I will use my existing domain and update my nameservers and type your domain.
- After you sign up, we email you your two nameservers (the setting that tells the internet where your website and email live). The email's subject is Welcome to EverWeb: Setup and Publishing Instructions. They are also in the Client Area under Services > My Services when you click your hosting plan.
- Publish your website and set up your email addresses before you change anything, so nothing stops working.
- Sign in at the company where you registered the domain and replace its nameservers with your two. See Point your domain to EverWeb Hosting (update nameservers / DNS).
The change can take up to 48 hours, but usually finishes within 6, depending on your internet provider (ISP).
Already have EverWeb + Hosting?
To use a domain with an unlisted extension as an extra website or for extra email on your plan, add it to your plan first, then point its nameservers to us. See How can I add additional domains or websites to my hosting account?
What's different
Only where you renew the domain. You pay for and renew it with the other company, and you contact them about the domain itself. Everything else, your website, your email and publishing from EverWeb, works exactly as it would with a domain registered with us.
Keep the renewal up to date at that company. If the domain expires, your website and email at that address stop working, even if your hosting is paid.
To see which extensions we offer, search for your domain on our domain registration page.
