Domain Homepage Settings: Set Your Home Page

What Is a Domain Homepage?

A Domain Homepage is the page that displays when someone visits your root domain URL (without any path).

Think of it like a store's front door—when someone walks in without looking for anything specific, they see the main storefront.

What it means:

• When visitor types just your domain (no path)
• They see your homepage
• You choose which page displays there
• Can be any landing page you've created

Common Situations & Quick Fixes

2. Verify save was successful
   • Did you click Save?
   • Did confirmation message appear?

webinar.yourbrand.com → Webinar (its own homepage)

Each has own homepage setting!
