Are subdomains included in custom domain hosting?

Hi,
If i host my domain with webflow with the connector, will i get a subdomain under my private domain with the payment? I mean if I have mysite.com hosted, will i get blog.mysite.com as part of the $5 payment?.

Thanks.

Hi @tommy, thanks for your question!

Once you configure a custom domain for a Webflow site, you can enter as many subdomains as you wish, and they are all included in the price (e.g. mysite.com, www.mysite.com, blog.mysite.com, etc).

However, that might not be what you want, because all those subdomains will be pointing to the same exact Webflow site/project.

If you need a separate site, but one that happens to be on a subdomain of another site that you have in your account, then that site will have a separate monthly hosting cost. So if you had the following sites:

1. Marketing Site (under URLs tommy.com and www.tommy.com)
2. Team Blog (under blog.tommy.com)

… that would cost $10 per month because it’s two separate sites with different content on them. I hope that make sense.

Thanks callmevlad for your response. I actually find a post that I think explains it at the level I can grub “Possibility to have a custom domain for my webflow account” Poker vs cyberdave created May 18, 2014. I believe this is similar to my case as we both need the same application, projects or blog not withstanding.
All I need is a subdomain for my blog (i.e myblog.mysite.com which will be under and have a navlink from mysite.com). Would I still be required to pay $5 monthly for this? I may be missing your point entirely but bear with me please. [/quote]

Thank you.
