Troubleshooting

How long until my subdomain is live?

It is published immediately after you sign in with Google and submit. A maintainer reviews published subdomains afterward and may remove any that break the rules.

Why was my subdomain removed?

We review subdomains after they publish and remove ones that break the Terms, such as impersonation, phishing, or illegal content.

My subdomain shows 522, "404", or a host error page

You have not connected the subdomain at your host yet. DNS alone is not enough — the host also needs to know it should answer for your subdomain.

  • Cloudflare Pages shows 522 Connection timed out until you add the domain under Custom domains.
  • Other hosts show a 404 or their own error page.

Follow the Connect your subdomain steps:

  • GitHub Pages → Settings → Pages → Custom domain
  • Cloudflare Pages → Custom domains
  • Netlify → Domain management
  • Vercel → Settings → Domains

It says the site is "not secure" or shows an HTTPS warning

SSL certificates are issued automatically by your host after DNS is detected, but the first one can take up to an hour. Wait, then reload. On GitHub Pages, also tick Enforce HTTPS once it is available.

The subdomain does not load at all

  • DNS can take a few minutes to spread. Try again after 10 minutes.
  • Make sure your portfolio URL itself works. If the host site is down, the subdomain will be down too.
  • Clear your browser cache or try a private window.

I changed my host and my subdomain stopped working

Your CNAME target changed, so we need to update the record. Email [email protected] with your subdomain and the new target.

Can I use my Canva site?

No. Free Canva cannot use a custom domain. See Using Canva for free alternatives.

Can I get email at my subdomain?

No. This service only creates web (DNS) records. It does not provide mailboxes.

I want a different subdomain, or to remove mine

Release your subdomain from your account to remove it. Names that are released can be taken by someone else later. To request a different name, release the old one and submit again. If you cannot sign in, email [email protected].

My request was rejected

Common reasons: the subdomain is reserved, the target host is not supported, the name appears to impersonate someone, or the portfolio does not appear to be yours. You can fix the issue and submit again.
