General Information


It is possible to attach a custom domain to your uCoz website, e.g. mysite.com, mysite.net etc., for FREE.

  • uCoz gives the possibility of full domain management (creation of subdomains, e-mail accounts etc. if a domain is attached by Method 2);
  • you will be able to create domain-based e-mails (e.g. admin@mysite.com );
  • you can buy a custom domain at uCoz Domains or any other domain registrar;
  • you'll be able to register your website in directories which prohibit registration of free websites;
  • you'll be able to enter banner exchange networks (or advertising companies) where only paid domains are allowed;
  • with a custom domain users will never lose your website, even if you change the hosting service, the website URL will remain the same;
  • with a custom domain search engines will give you a higher place in search results.

Domain Attachment FAQ


Question: How can I create a subdomain?

Answer: Please see the following guide: http://forum.ucoz.com/forum/54-435-6436-16-1218803195


Question: Can I attach two domains to my website?

Answer: No, it is not possible.


Question: Can I change the ucoz domain, e.g.: mysite.ucoz.co.uk to mysiteEtc.ucoz.co.uk. Is this allowed and how?

Answer: No, once you have chosen a domain name you cannot change it, you can only create a new website.


Question: How do i setup my uCoz web page in my own domain? I did try but failed. I can see this error message:

The domain djcaner.biz has been parked but not yet attached to the account.
Domain has incorrect set of name servers: ns1.hostavrupa.net, ns2.hostavrupa.net
The following list of the name servers must be applied: ns1.ucoz.net, ns2.ucoz.net


Answer: The system gives you the answer: You must change the name servers in the domain control panel (your account on the website where you registered the domain).



1. How to Attach a Domain by Method 2: http://forum.ucoz.com/forum/54-18149-1
2. How to Attach a Domain by Method 3: http://forum.ucoz.com/forum/54-18150-1


What's the difference between Method 2 and Method 3?


When you use Method 2, your new domain is hosted at uCoz servers. If you use Method 3 - you just change the domain name (to be more precise you just get one more name for your site because it will be accessible by both names - the new one and the old one) but your domain remains hosted at another registrar's servers. So the difference is in the place where your new domain is hosted - either at uCoz or not.

adytzu1_vl01, the subdomains are created. But did you attach them to other uCoz websites? And if yes then how long did you wait?

There is no site configured on this address

If you are the owner of the website and continue to see this error after the domain attachment, then the attachment procedure has not been finished. Finish the procedure in the "Domain attachment" section of the Control Panel.

If the domain has just been attached to the site you must wait 15 minutes.

adytzu1_vl01, after you create a subdomain you need to attach it to any other website (uCoz or non-uCoz) but NOT the current one as it is not possible to attach two or more domains to one website.

That depends on your domain provider, e.g. GoDaddy.com, etc.

bluebirdjeff, buy an .org domain from any domain registrar and then attach it to your website. The procedure is similar.

I think for that to work, you need to attach your domain using "www.ajzone.co.uk". The probable cause I can think of why "www." won't work in your domain is because you started to attach it as "ajzone.co.uk".

Hi all! Can anyone help me? I tried to do method 3 for my website and at my domain's control panel, it prompts me with this:

I don't know what to provide in the Host Name field. The IP address I'm using there is the one uCoz showed me. I already tried putting my domain into the Host Name but it would always result to this error.

NOTE:
To all of you who will say "Just use the Method 2", well I can't for some personal reason, I need to have it setup using Method 3.

Please help me...
