Domain name identifies each site on the web. It is basically a combination of letters or words that individuals type into their web-browsers to access your website. For example, the domain name for sitemighty is ‘sitemighty.com’.

Yes. SiteMighty offers a Domain Mapping feature which allows you to make your site appear under a completely custom domain.
You require the services of a domain name registrar. If you are not sure which domain registrar to choose you can start with searching the web for ‘register domain’ or ‘internet domain name registration’ and other such phrases. You have got a lot of options. For instance, you can use services of Godaddy(http://www.godaddy.com) to register your domain.
1. Register a domain name using any internet domain registrar.
2. Login to your SiteMighty site manager. In the Domain Mapping area, create two records -- www.yourdomain.com and yourdomain.com.
3. The only two things you will need to set up in your registrar for your domain are Name Servers :
NS1 = ns1.sitemighty.com,
NS2 = ns2.sitemighty.com,
Everything else will be done for you by our support service.
Domain Mapping is an identifier of your domain within our system. This feature redirects users accessing your domain to your website. Telling more, SiteMighty hosts many websites and when your domain is set up to point to SiteMighty this feature helps to determine which domain belongs to which site.
We currently do not offer such service, however we might enable such registration some time later. For now, please feel free to use services of any well-known domain registrars, for example http://www.godaddy.com
Please feel use our primary IP address 67.207.143.131 for such purposes.
You need to take care of this while setting up your domain. If you want both of the forms to lead to your website you need to set up two separate domain forms. First one should point ‘www.yourdomain.com’ to SiteMighty and the second just ‘yourdomain.com’ to SiteMighty as well. You will need to enter them in the Domain Mapping section.
You will need to change the name servers of your existing domain name to NS1 = ns1.sitemighty.com and NS2 = ns2.sitemighty.com. Added domain should start to work within 24hours. For assistance in accessing and changes name server information, we recommend consulting support at your respective registrar.
