#16 How to Change Your Domain Name/ Website Address/ URL of your WordPress Website in 2019

In this podcast, I demonstrate the process for changing your domain name at the Domain Registry where it’s registered in four easy steps! What is a Domain Name? Your domain name is essentially the URL you see displayed in your browser bar.  The domain name is what’s important for your business, because of the brand association attached to it. Sub-Domains When I’m building a website, I tend not to use my ultimate domain until the site is finished.  That’s because we don’t want people to be able to see a half-developed site.  So, I will normally build on a very obscure domain name, and then I tend to create a subdomain.  A sub-domain is an additional component of the url.  For example, let’s say I use “website” as my subdomain for sharonxhenderson.com, my full url will be website.sharonxhenderson.com.  And nobody is going to find the website I’m building on this obscure sub-domain. Tune in to the full podcast to learn the process in a few easy steps!  If you'd like visuals, you can view the video and read the article here: https://sharonxhenderson.com/2019/09/20/domain-name-change/
