Website Domains Overview
To maintain brand consistency in promotions, DirectIQ offers the Website Domains feature, letting you register your own domain (e.g., promo.yourdomain.com) for use with landing pages. Just go to Settings > My Website Domain, click Add New Domain, enter your subdomain, and authenticate it via your website's DNS using a CNAME record. Once verified, you can use that domain in any landing page you design.
On any form of digital marketing one of the main goals is to preserve brand identity and raise band awareness.
But people do not always have a web developer or designer at their service so to make a temporary promo often Landing Pages are used. With landing pages people will see weird links and may think that this promo is not coming from www.yourwebsite.com and drive them away.
DirectIQ has a solution for it by introducing the Website Domains feature.
This feature will allow you to register your website domain and use it with a Landing Page that you will be able to easily design by Drag and Drop.
How to register a website domain?
To register your website domain go to Settings > My Website domain.
Then click on the button on the upper - right corner Add New Domain.
On the page that opens insert the domain that you choose without the www part. For example, you want to insert a new page for your website called www.promo.yourdomain.com you will need to insert promo.yourdomain.com
After you have inserted the page you want to use all you need to do is authorize (Authenticate) this page from your website settings. This step is very easy all you have to do is go to Your websites DNS settings panel and insert a new CNAME record with the data as shown in the DirectIQ page :
Once the domain has been authenticated you can use it on your landing pages to create any design you want.
