Types of Domains That Can Be Used
Each project can be linked to one domain (e.g., example.com) or one subdomain (e.g., blog.example.com, www.example.com).
We support various domain types such as ".com", ".co.jp", ".jp", and ".net", but domains with Japanese characters and uppercase letters are not supported.
Acquiring a Domain
STUDIO does not provide domain acquisition services. To publish your site on STUDIO using a custom domain, you first need to acquire a domain from an external domain acquisition service.
Important Points Regarding Custom Domain Connections
Publishing in a Subdirectory
With the Business plan or higher, you can use the Custom Proxy Add-on to publish your STUDIO site in a subdirectory (e.g., example.com/blog) of a site hosted on another server. This is an add-on available for projects on the Business plan. For more details, please refer to Setting Up a Custom Proxy.
Email Services
STUDIO does not provide email services. To use an email address (email account) with your custom domain, you will need to contract with a separate email service and configure the necessary records. For more information, please refer to How to Use Email Accounts with Custom Domains Connected to and Published on STUDIO.
Domain Transfers
STUDIO does not provide domain management services. If you do not want to continue managing your domain with a previous service, please transfer it to another external domain management service.
Additionally, if there are existing A record settings for another service with the domain you plan to connect to STUDIO, it is recommended to set the "TTL" of that A record as short as possible on the domain management service, and then start the STUDIO settings after the time set for the previous "TTL" has passed. This will ensure a smooth domain setup.
Servers
All sites on STUDIO, including those using custom domains, are managed on STUDIO's servers. You cannot use your own server, so please be aware of this in advance.
