Adding a Domain to Your Forum

Have you considered adding a "private" domain to your forum? What does a private domain do? View the answer below! Note, we charge $0.50 per month for this upgrade.

Private Domain

A private domain masks your forum with a domain of your choice. Before we can do this, you need a domain name. You can purchase any domain you like from a domain name registrar. For example: namecheap or godaddy. You can chose any registrar you like, but you must have the ability to modify your nameservers. We suggest namecheap or godaddy.

Purchase

Now that you have bought a domain name, we require two simple steps. The first step is to change your nameservers to our nameservers. This can be done where you bought your domain name. Ask your registrar for support on doing this simple step.

Nameserver

You want your primary nameserver(ns1) to become:-
ns1.smfnew.com
And your secondary nameserver(ns2) to become:-
ns2.smfnew.com
Once this has been completed, allow up to 48 hours for the domain to point to our server

Order

Now that it's all configured, purchase our domain name upgrade here for only $0.50 a month. Allow us 24 hours to approve, then you may access your forum hosted by us via your newly created domain!

Please note, we are not responsible for providing support on your registrar's behalf. Please contact them for support regarding your domain name. We simply host it.
