Domain Names

Domain questions, answered.

How do I get a domain name?

If you already own a domain, we can help connect it to your new website. If you do not have one yet, we can help you choose and purchase one through a domain partner, or you can buy it directly through a registrar such as Namecheap.

Do I own my domain name?

Yes. Your domain should be registered in your name or your business name. We can help with setup, but you should remain the owner of the domain whenever possible.

Can Ecropolis buy the domain for me?

Yes. Ecropolis can help procure domains at cost through a domain partner when that is the easiest path. We will make the ownership and renewal details clear before purchase.

Can I use Namecheap?

Yes. Namecheap is a good option for many small businesses that want to manage domain registration directly. If you purchase through Namecheap, we can help you point the domain to your new website.

What if I already have a domain somewhere else?

That is usually fine. We can work with most major registrars. You will need access to the domain account or be able to invite us to help with DNS settings.

Do I need to transfer my domain to Ecropolis?

Usually no. In most cases, we can connect your website without transferring the domain. If a transfer ever makes sense, we will explain why before making changes.

Will Ecropolis offer domain registration directly?

We may add more direct domain registration options in the future. For now, we can help procure domains through a partner or guide you through a registrar such as Namecheap.

Common Questions

Everything else.

How long does a small business website take?

Simple websites can often launch quickly when the content, images, and business details are ready. Timing depends on page count, feedback speed, and any integrations.

Is this a template website?

No. We may use proven patterns to keep costs low and timelines fast, but your website is built around your business, brand, services, and goals.

Can I update the website myself?

These sites are designed so you do not have to manage a website editor. Send us updates through support and we will help keep the site current.

What counts as a minor update?

Minor updates include simple text edits, phone number changes, hours updates, image swaps, and similar changes to existing pages.

What if I need a new page?

Simple landing pages are typically $25–$50. Larger pages, custom layouts, integrations, or campaign work are quoted before we begin.

Can I add online store features later?

Yes. If your business grows into ecommerce, subscriptions, booking, or custom software, Ecropolis can help you move into a larger commerce or software solution.

Do you help with SEO?

Yes. SEO basics are included from the start: clean page structure, fast load times, mobile-friendly pages, page titles, descriptions, and indexable content. Ongoing SEO campaigns can be added separately.

Is hosting included?

Hosting and Cloudflare delivery management are included with the monthly care plan.
