What is the free subdomain and how do I use it?

Every newly created website on NoraPix automatically receives its own subdomain, at no extra cost, following the pattern yourname.norapix.de. In this article we explain exactly what that means and how you can make the most of it.

Available immediately

Your subdomain is reachable right after you publish your website, so you do not have to buy or register a domain first to go live. This makes it ideal for getting started quickly and sharing your website with others right away.

Perfect for testing

Especially in the early stages, the subdomain is a great way to test your website thoroughly before committing to your own, paid domain. You can already send friends, colleagues or potential customers the link to your subdomain and gather feedback long before making any bigger decisions.

The name of your subdomain

The first part of your subdomain matches the username you chose during registration. It is worth thinking carefully about a short, memorable name already at account creation time, since this part of the address typically cannot be changed afterward.

Connecting your own domain as well

For professional, long term use, we recommend connecting your own domain in addition, for example yourcompany.com. A dedicated domain looks noticeably more professional and credible to visitors, and it also works better for email addresses and marketing materials. You can find the details on how this works in the article Connecting your own domain to your website. Good to know: your subdomain remains available and usable afterward as well.
