Change your site URL

Every site has a free address like https://brave-otter.drome.site. New sites get a random one. You can change the first part to something that fits your site.

Before you start#

The Site URL setting only appears once the site has an active plan or has been published. See Plans and pricing.

Change your URL#

1. In the editor, open the site menu at the top left and choose Settings.
2. On the General page, find Site URL.
3. Enter the new name in Slug (subdomain). The line above the field shows the full address.
4. Select Save.

You'll see Saved. when it's done.

Rules for the name#

• Use lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens. Capitals become lowercase, and spaces and other characters become hyphens.
• Use 3 to 50 characters.
• The name must be unique. If someone already uses it, you'll see "That slug is already taken."
• Some names are reserved for Drome. If you pick one, you'll see "That URL is reserved. Try another."

What happens to the old URL#

If you've connected a custom domain, it keeps working and follows the new address automatically.

Use your own domain instead#

To show your site on a domain you own, like www.example.com, see Connect a custom domain.
