Hello. I am about to export my website project. I want to use the free hosting for a year that you offer. The system has generated a URL. I have my own domain name. How do I use my own domain name instead of the system generated one?
Also, is an SSL certificate included in the hosting package? If it is included, how do you activate it and can it be used with my own domain name?
Thank you.

However, I have no experience with DNS; if there are problems, the Incomedia employees or possibly the moderators would have to help.
Hello Roger,
as Daniel mentioned you can use that guide about DNS, or alternatively transferring the domain from the other provider using the authcode that you'd need to request from them.
The SSL certificate is included and will be activated by us.
Let us know if you need anything else.
