  Hi, I just wanted some insight on what route to take? I’m launching a pilot project, and I have a registered domain through GoDaddy. I want to continue using my registered domain as I develop/play around with my pilot website, without major financial commitments and/or long-term contracts. Thanks!

  Hey there, no problem. You’re welcome to create your new site with us before pointing the domain here. That way your current site can stay “live” until your new one is ready.

  I do recommend getting a plan earlier on if you’ll need it, since they have other features you might find useful, including direct support:

  When it comes time to move the domain here, I’d recommend mapping, then initiating the transfer — that way regardless of how long the transfer takes, that process should go smoothly for you.

  Let us know if you need more help!
