Below is a brief overview of the ownership of the domain, email, hosting, and DNS services that will be associated with your new website. We understand that these topics can be complex, so we’ve created this client resource to ensure you have a clear understanding of what you’ll own and control once your site goes live.
Domain Ownership
Your domain name (e.g., yourbusiness.com) serves as your online identity and is a critical component of your web presence. You have full ownership and control over your domain name. You will be able to renew, transfer, or modify your domain settings as needed through your domain registrar account.
Email Services
Your custom email addresses (e.g., [email protected]) are an essential communication tool for your business. You have full ownership and control over these email accounts, allowing you to add, remove, or modify users as required.
WP Engine Web Hosting
Web hosting is the service that makes your website accessible to users around the world. Your WP Engine hosting through JSMT is managed by us; upon request, we will share access to the account or transfer it to you.
Cloudflare DNS Management
DNS (Domain Name System) is the technology that translates your domain name into an IP address, allowing users to access your website. As the website owner, you will have full control over your Cloudflare DNS settings, enabling you to manage the records that direct traffic to your website and email services.
Google Services – Analytics, Search Console, Tag Manager
Our web design projects include baseline G4 Analytics, submission to Google Search Console, and Google tag manager account creation. We will grant you access to the Analytics account at launch, and provide access to Search Console and Tag Manager upon request.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns about these topics. We look forward to the successful launch of your new website!
