Questions and answers
Domain Setup FAQs
Do I need to buy a domain before getting started?
No. You can purchase a domain at any point during the development process. I recommend having a domain purchased when the final version of the website is deployed. You will have 100% ownership of the domain.
Can you connect my domain to an existing website?
Yes. I can update the necessary DNS records to point your domain to an existing website host, whether the website was built by me or another provider. I have experience doing this on popular registrars such as GoDaddy and Wix.
Can you set up professional email?
Yes. I can help connect your domain to a professional email provider and configure the DNS records needed for sending and receiving messages reliably. I usually recommend Google Workspace.
Will changing my DNS records cause interruptions?
DNS changes can take time to propagate, and incorrect records can cause errors. I plan changes carefully and verify the important services after the updates are made. Updates and propagation can take up to 48 hours typically.
How much does domain setup cost?
The cost depends on whether you need domain registration, website connection, professional email, or additional DNS and security configuration. An initial conversation will help determine the right scope.
