  I purchased a doman via freeola and would like to transfer it wordpress as freeola is not very user friendly design-wise, and email crashes frequently. However, I have to wait till end of 60 days notice. Can I design my site under a different name, transfer my domain to this website and just copy over the content? Thanks

  Hi @backtoours, sure! You’re welcome to map the domain here in the meantime:

  And, if you want to design the site prior to that, that’s fine too. You’ll get a free subdomain when you set up the site, and can use that until you’re ready to go live.

  Let us know if you have more questions!

  Thank you for the answer. That’s what’ll do, then.
