Custom Domains

You can point your own domain at your Makenot.work profile so fans reach you at yourdomain.com instead of makenot.work/u/username.

Setup

1. Add Your Domain

  1. Go to Settings > Domain
  2. Enter your domain (e.g., shop.yourdomain.com or yourdomain.com)
  3. Click “Add”

Domain names must be valid hostnames. You cannot add makenot.work or its subdomains.

2. Verify Ownership

Add a DNS TXT record to prove you own the domain:

Record TypeHostValue
TXT_mnw-verify.yourdomain.commnw-verify-{verification-code}

The verification code is shown on the settings page after adding your domain.

After adding the DNS record, return to Settings > Domain and click “Verify.” The platform checks via DNS-over-HTTPS (Cloudflare resolver), so verification completes within two minutes.

3. SSL Certificate

Once verified, Makenot.work provisions SSL automatically via on-demand TLS. A certificate is issued the first time a visitor connects.

DNS Configuration

Point your domain to Makenot.work by adding a CNAME record:

Record TypeHostValue
CNAMEyourdomain.com (or subdomain)makenot.work

If your DNS provider does not allow a CNAME on the apex domain, use their CNAME flattening or ALIAS record feature, or use a subdomain like shop.yourdomain.com.

Managing Your Domain

From Settings > Domain you can:

  • View your current domain and verification status
  • Remove your domain to revert to the default makenot.work/u/username URL

One domain per account. To change domains, remove the current one and add the new one.
