Custom Domains

Searching for a domain

1. Go to Wigmorean Cloud → Domains → Search
2. Type the name you want — with or without the TLD
3. Results show availability across common TLDs (.com, .org, .net, .io, .co, and many more) with live pricing
4. Green checkmarks mean available; grey means taken

Registering a new domain

1. Click Register on any available domain
2. Confirm the term (1, 2, 3, 5, or 10 years)
3. Review the WHOIS contact — WHOIS privacy is included free
4. Choose which site on your account the domain should attach to (you can change this later)
5. Complete checkout

DNS is set up automatically. Your domain points to the right IPs the moment registration completes — usually within a minute of checkout.

Transferring a domain to Wigmorean

If you already own the domain at another registrar:

1. At your current registrar, unlock the domain and disable WHOIS privacy temporarily
2. Request the EPP / authorization code — it'll be emailed to your WHOIS contact
3. In Wigmorean Cloud, go to Domains → Transfer
4. Enter the domain and the EPP code
5. Confirm the transfer and pay the 1-year renewal fee (this extends your expiry by a year)

Transfers take 5–7 days by ICANN rules. We email you at each step.

DNS management

For any domain you own through Wigmorean — or any external domain pointed at our nameservers — the DNS Editor lets you manage records without leaving WordPress:

• A / AAAA — point subdomains at specific IPs
• CNAME — alias one name to another
• MX — route email (pre-configured when you add Professional Email)
• TXT — SPF, DKIM, DMARC, domain verification
• SRV — services like VoIP
• CAA — restrict which CAs can issue certs

Nameservers on an external domain

Prefer to keep your domain at another registrar but host the site with us? Point the nameservers at:

ns1.wigmorean.cloud
ns2.wigmorean.cloud
ns3.wigmorean.cloud
ns4.wigmorean.cloud

Changes propagate in 4–24 hours. Once the new nameservers are live, you manage DNS from our panel.
