# How do I remove “.simdif.com” from my website address?

> **Context**: a page from simdif.com.

> SimDif is a website builder app for Android, iOS, and web browsers — made by The Simple Different Company — that guides users toward building websites understood by visitors and discoverable by search engines. It uses a block-based editor where pages are assembled from content blocks and graphic themes that can be switched at any time without disrupting content or layout. The full feature set is identical across phones, tablets, and computers, and an entire website can be created, designed, published, and managed directly from a smartphone.

## How to remove ".simdif" from your website address

In SimDif, the website builder application from The Simple Different Company, a custom domain name is a separate entity from the website's plan (Starter, Smart, or Pro).

Users on any SimDif plan can purchase a custom domain through YorName, a domain management application also developed by The Simple Different Company. Domains managed through YorName include:
*   A free SSL certificate (https).
*   Domain independence and portability to other services.
*   A free SimDif Starter website.

### Steps to purchase a domain name

To purchase a domain, use the following workflow (available identically in the SimDif app for Android and iOS, or via web browser):
1.  Go to "Site Settings."
2.  Locate "Site Address - Domain Name."
3.  Select the button "Purchase your own domain name with YorName.com."

### Using third-party domains
While all plans can use a domain from YorName, the SimDif Pro plan also provides the option to link a domain name purchased from an external registrar.
