If you own a custom domain that you have purchased outside of ClickFunnels, you can add that external custom domain to your funnel.
What is an external custom domain?
An external custom domain is a domain that you have purchased or obtained through a hosting service outside of ClickFunnels. Some of these common hosting services include GoDaddy, Namecheap, Bluehost, Cloudfare, etc.
One of the main reasons why you would want to add a custom domain to your ClickFunnels is because it gives your funnels a refined brand. Once you have connected your domain to ClickFunnels, you will not have to use the ClickFunnels sub-domain in your funnels. For example, when using the sub-domain your funnels address would look something like this:
Mycompany.clickfunnels.com
If you are using an external domain, your address would look something like this:
Mycompany.com
How many domains can be integrated into one ClickFunnels account?
This is a commonly asked question. The simple answer is that this depends on the package you have chosen. You can add 3 custom domains in the started pack. In the platinum pack, you have the option to add 9 custom domains.
