How can I register a second domain for my Jimdo website?

By adding a second domain to your website, you can make your website available via an alternative address. In some cases, adding a second domain can be quite beneficial, for instance, if you’d like to cover different spellings of your domain name. If you’re already using a domain that is registered with Jimdo and would like to add another domain, then proceed as follows:

1. Choose Website Builder > Domains in the left menu
2. Click the Add a domain button that will appear underneath your domains
3. Pick the domain name of your choice if it already appears here or click Browse more options to enter a specific domain name
4. Proceed through the steps that follow - please note that you’ll be asked for payment before entering the registration data
   
   • For domains that are not country specific (like .com), you’ll receive an email from us containing a verification link. Please click this verification link in order to finish registering your domain.
     Please note that this has to be done within 14 days in order for you to use your domain

The registration process is usually completed within 24 hours. Within your dashboard, your domain will be displayed with the Pending status until the registration is finished.

Notes

• You’ll need to stick to certain general rules when registering a domain. These owner regulations are compliant with the responsible registration authority - for example, ICANN for *.com, *.net, and *org. domains or the Denic for *.de domains.

• You can decide which one of your domains should be the primary domain of your website as soon as the registration of your second domain is finished. That’s the domain that visitors get to see in their address bar when visiting your website. Find the related help article here:
