A domain name is a unique web address, like mydomain.com, that directs users to your website or gallery when entered in a browser.
Every Wfolio account comes with a , such as yourmail.wfolio.com, which you can use for your website or galleries. However, if you want to enhance your brand's credibility and make your links look more professional, registering a is highly recommended.
Here are a few tips to help you make your choice:
Keep it simple. Choose a domain that is easy to read, remember, and pronounce. A clear and straightforward name makes it easier for visitors to recall.
Avoid long words. Shorter domains are more memorable. Consider abbreviations, such as photo instead of photographer.
Match your brand. If you have a business, studio, or personal brand, incorporate its name into the domain to strengthen brand recognition.
Minimize special characters. Avoid numbers and hyphens whenever possible. They can make a domain harder to read and remember. If you must use a hyphen, stick to just one.
Double-Check Spelling. Domains cannot be changed after purchase. Carefully review the name before registering to avoid costly mistakes.
You can register and pay for a domain name in the .com or .me zone on Wfolio. You can also connect a .wfolio.pro.

Your new domain will be connected within a few hours. Any links using your old .wfolio.pro address will automatically redirect to the new domain.
When you sign up on Wfolio, you automatically receive a free domain (e.g., yourmail.wfolio.pro). You can change it to a different free domain at any time:
Go to Settings → Site Address (or Disk Web Address).
Click Connect Domain.
Enter a new domain name and click Select.
Click Connect next to the .wfolio.pro domain.
Changing your .wfolio.pro to another .wfolio.pro domain means old links will no longer work. They will not redirect to your new domain, so be sure to share updated links with your clients.
