How to setup website in hubspot

Marketing & Content Hub Tips, Tricks & Best Practices
1

Hello,

I’m new to hubspot and just upgraded to the starter package.

I have a wordpress hosted website already and have my own domain.

I would like to setup a website through hubspot. I can follow the steps in creating the website itself using the hubspot gui.

Questions:

How do I connect my domain to hubspot?

Where and what are the DNS updates I need to make in hubspot

Who hosts the website? Do I keep my hosting package or can I remove it (worry is if I remove my hosting package from my supplier I may lose my email accounts as well?)

Where do I install the SSL Cert? is is provided for free by Hubspot

Thank You

Hi @MLad00,

Please have a look at these two articles and let me know if you have any follow-up questions after:

Whether the hosting package of your provider includes emails or not is something you would have to check with them.

Best regards!

Thank you both.

If I wanted to create an area for trade customers away from the public would that be possible within hubspot?

i.e. Trade customers can register, and then login to for example a subdomain address and see trade prices.

Is this possible or is it easier to via a shopping cart via wordpress?

Thank You
