Hello everyone.
Now let’s talk about “setting up the domain”.
What is setting up the domain and how can we do that here?
Come let’s understand that as well.
Friends, as you already know we have created an account on Shopify for this website that is “print man industries”.
So, when you go to this website, under “moving along nicely”, the third option is “add domain”. (Got it?)
Just click on “add domain”.
Now, there are 3 major steps here by which you can add the domain.
Look, purchasing the domain and setting it up here is entirely your decision.
But let me tell you one thing here. Why should you purchase the domain? Now, look, friends. The brand name is one thing. The brand name means Shopify is a brand, LearnVern dot com is also a brand. In the same way, you will also have to create your own brand.
Now pay attention here. As soon as we added our store to Shopify, so we can see, they have promoted their own brand “Shopify” very smartly.
“Print man industries dot my shopify dot com”.
So, here they have promoted their own brand as well. This way, when you promote your store, their brand is also promoted.
Well now if you think smartly about it, you will realize that purchasing the domain is very important for your brand.
Now, from where can you purchase the domain?
Let me give you the names of 2 websites.
The first one is “go daddy dot com”. You can purchase the domain from “GoDaddy India” version. They provide many offers, friends. I am not at all promoting this website, I am sharing this website just for the sole purpose of education.
The second website is “Big Rock”.
Both the websites provide very good services.
Go daddy is an international brand while big rock is an Indian brand. This is the only difference. Apart from that, they provide the same services, according to the competition, and they provide great service for domain registration.
Now let’s go back to our setting tab.
So, friends, have a look, here you can see “connect existing domain”. What does it mean? It means that if you have already purchased the domain, do you want to divert it here? If you want to do so, just click on “connect existing domain”. If you have a domain available.
Just for an example, I am going to add a domain here.
(02:48-02:52 - tune)
Now as soon as I entered the domain name and clicked on next, Shopify is giving me some information related to that domain. Should I actually connect this domain? If yes, then verify here.
Just “view all the instructions” and then “verify the connection”. If everything goes well, your domain will be connected to the Shopify system in no time.
Friends, Shopify is providing us technical support through which we can create our website very nicely. Therefore, if you want to remove Shopify’s name, you have to purchase a domain.
So, you can purchase the domain from any website or you can purchase the domain from Shopify itself.
Just click on “Buy new domain”. And you will be able to buy new domain.
Yes, friends.
You can also purchase the domain from Shopify.
Here you just have to search your domain.
(03:50-03:58 – tune)
Just search your domain here, by typing the name here. you will get all the information here, including the charges that you have to pay per year.
Now suppose, you have already purchased a domain from GoDaddy or BigRock. but you are not liking the service of GoDaddy or BigRock, so far, and you want to transfer the domain for any reason, here, you can get that feature as well.
Yes, friends.
What is the meaning of transfer domain?
Now, let’s say you don’t like the services of your current sim provider and you want to transfer your sim to another sim provider or company, what you do is just switch your sim card from the current company to another.
In the same way, friends, if you don’t like the service of Go daddy, you can switch your service to Big Rock, and suppose you don’t like the service of Big Rock as well, you can jump to Shopify from big rock.
Yes, you can do that.
As I already showed you with an example that this is possible if you don’t like the services of your current provider.
Now for that, you just have to click on “transfer domain” here and enter your domain name here.
It’s obvious that if you want to transfer your domain, you will have to mention your domain name here.
Just like that.
(05:35-05:40 - tune)
After entering the name, click on “next”..
Now here, Shopify is giving you some instructions before transferring your domain.
So, prepare yourself before transferring a domain.
You will get all the instructions and steps that you need to follow before transferring your domain.
“Before you transfer”, you have to complete this process.
After reading all the instructions and fulfilling all the steps, if you have decided to transfer your domain, then just click on “verify domain”.
Now, as soon as you click on “verify domain”, the process of transferring starts.
I was just showing you this for your information.
But if you don’t have a domain. What will you do? You can purchase the domain from any of the websites that I mentioned above- Go Daddy or Big Rock or Shopify as well.
There are many other providers. Just go to google and register your domain and eventually you will have your own domain name that you can connect with Shopify. What will happen by doing so? Well, Shopify will provide you a whole system along with your own domain name through which others won’t be able to know the source from where you created your website.
You just have to showcase your products on your website. The world will only see your name. They won’t be able to see that you have created your website through Shopify.
But still, if you have any queries or comments, click the discussion button below the video and post there. This way, you will be able to connect to fellow learners and discuss the course. Also, Our Team will try to solve your query.
So, see you soon with the next topic in our next session.
Thank you very much.
