Domain Name Setup in SimplePhoto

Using your domain name with SimplePhoto

Now that you have enabled your SimplePhoto service, you will probably want to know how to connect your SimplePhoto Storefront to the website name you have registered, or are about to register. Please follow the steps below to connect your website name to your SimplePhoto service.

Use the domain forwarding service provided by your domain name registration company.

Step 1: Register a website name
If you have never registered a website name, then you must first register one (also referred to as a domain name). Example: www.JohnDoePhotography.com

We would like to recommend purchasing your website name from NameCheap.com or GoDaddy.com. They are an easy and cost-effective way to register a new domain name for your SimplePhoto service and they offer free domain forwarding.

Step 2: Setup “domain forwarding”

Forward to your SimplePhoto Storefront Login Page: If you would like your domain name to direct customers to your SimplePhoto Storefront Login page, use the “Storefront Login Page” link when you set up domain forwarding. The “Storefront Login Page” pane appears in the "Dashboard" tab of your SimplePhoto Control Panel.
