Buy or Connect a Domain

Your website needs a domain, the address people type to find you. In Wizard Application you can register a new one, transfer one you own, or connect a domain you want to keep where it is.

Claim your free domain

On the Standard and Professional plans, one .com or .co.uk domain is free for the first year once your first plan payment has gone through. Search for it in Domains and select Claim free next to an available name.

Register a new domain

1. Search for a name

   Open Domains in the sidebar and search for the name you want. Each result shows whether it is available, premium or taken, with the price per year, and you get suggestions if your first choice has gone.

2. Add it to your cart

   Select Add to cart on each domain you want, then go to the checkout.

3. Enter the owner's details

   Domains are registered to a named owner, so enter the contact name, email, address and phone number. Use details you will keep up to date.

4. Confirm

   The first year is paid from your wallet. If the registration fails for any reason, the money goes straight back.

Transfer a domain you own

To move a domain from another registrar, first unlock it there and ask for its authorisation code, sometimes called the EPP or transfer code. Then choose to transfer in Domains, enter the domain, the code and the owner's details, and confirm. The transfer is paid from your wallet.

Connect a domain and keep it where it is

Happy with your current registrar? Use Connect a domain you own. The domain stays with your registrar, and when you choose it in your website settings you are shown the DNS records to add there.

Manage DNS

For domains registered or transferred with us, select Manage DNS to add records such as MX records for your email provider or a TXT record to verify a service. If something stops working, restore the default records to point the domain and www back at Wizard Application. You can also set your own nameservers.

Next, build your website. For more, see domains.
