Notion just made creating polished, professional websites even simpler. If you’re a workspace owner on a paid plan, you can now connect your own custom domain to Notion Sites! Whether it’s a client-facing portal, a team knowledge base, or a project showcase, this feature ensures your Notion site aligns perfectly with your brand.
What’s New?
With the custom domain add-on, you can link your existing domain to Notion Sites. Here’s the scoop:
- Use a custom domain you already own—Notion doesn’t sell domains, so you’ll keep your current provider.
- For just $10/month (or $8/month with annual billing), you can elevate your online presence without hassle.
- Want to manage multiple domains? You can connect up to 25 custom domains, each requiring a separate add-on.
Why Teams Will Love This
Teams using Notion for project management or knowledge management can now present their sites professionally. Imagine sharing a hiring portal at careers.yourbrand.com or a sleek knowledge base at hub.yourteam.com. Your clients, partners, and team will appreciate the streamlined, professional URLs.
Getting Started in Minutes
- Go to Settings in your Notion workspace and navigate to Sites.
- Add a New domain, select Custom domain, and set up your payment method for the add-on.
- Enter your domain, ensuring it includes a subdomain (e.g., www, careers, etc.).
- Follow prompts to update your DNS settings—add a CNAME record pointing to external.notion.site and a TXT record for verification.
For details, Notion provides tailored setup instructions for popular providers like GoDaddy, Namecheap, and Squarespace check the official notion guide here.
🧠 To note: The custom domain add-on’s billing aligns with your Notion plan. If you’re on an annual plan, you’ll unlock a discounted rate of $8/month for the add-on. Need to add a domain mid-cycle? You’ll pay a prorated amount, making the transition seamless.
Real-Life Example
Let’s say your team uses Notion to manage marketing projects. By connecting projects.yourcompany.com, your external partners can quickly access campaigns without navigating clunky URLs. Clean, professional, and efficient.
Bonus: No Notion Branding
Custom domains also allow you to remove Notion branding, ensuring your site looks and feels entirely yours.
