> Customize your form's URL to match and promote your brand using Fillout. Host your forms at forms.yourcompany.com or any-subdomain.yourcompany.com.

## What is a custom domain?

A **custom domain** is a unique web address to replace your web form's default URL, enhancing brand visibility and trust. It adds professionalism, improves SEO, and ensures a seamless user experience.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Add domain">
    Navigate to `Custom domain` and enter a **domain** that you own. You can also use a **subdomain** like [forms.mydomainname.com](http://forms.mydomainname.com) or [surveys.mydomainname.com](http://surveys.mydomainname.com).

      1. Log in to your domain provider.
      2. Add the CNAME record as instructed in the Fillout dashboard.
      3. Wait until the DNS records are verified (this can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours). Click Refresh in Fillout to check if your domain has been connected.

    You'll know the setup is complete once you see a green checkmark icon <Icon icon="circle-check" iconType="regular" color="#27e82a" />.

    That's it! Now, all your form links will begin with your **domain name**. You can see this in the `Share` page.
