White Label Client Space - Agency Domain

Personal agency domain is not only easier for your clients to remember, but it also makes you look more professional and helps build brand recognition. 

 A personal agency URL looks like this: mywebsite.com

NOTE: We will use Cloudflare to illustrate the process of setting up agency domain. If you are already using another provider (e.g. cPanel), we encourage you to create an additional account with Cloudflare and connect it with your site before proceeding further.

In case you have any questions about setting up a personal agency domain with a provider other than Cloudflare, contact our customer support team and we’ll be happy to assist.
