Domain Name Overview

Not available during the trial period

Under Settings > System Settings > General Settings > Custom Domain Name you can add the domain name of your job site.


Customizing Your Domain Name

Your job site will be immediately ready to go live with the Smartjobboard default domain name that is created on signup. This will be whatever you entered in Job Board Name field as a sub- domain of the domain mysmartjobboard.com

We recommend that you purchase a custom domain name for your website front-page and redirect it to your Smartjobboard domain name.

To get started, you will need to purchase a domain name from a 3rd party Domain Registrar. Here are some 3rd Party Domain Registrars that you can use:

In your Domain Registrar’s admin interface:

If your domain name is in the format of yoursite.com:

  1. Add a CNAME Record with a name of www and a value of proxy-eu.mysmartjobboard.com

  2. Add an A Record with a name of @ and a value of 52.16.160.97

If you're using a subdomain in the format like jobs.yoursite.com:

  1. Add a CNAME Record with a name of jobs (or whatever the first part of your subdomain is) and a value of proxy-eu.mysmartjobboard.com

Next, add your custom domain name in your SmartJobBoard admin panel

Entering Your Custom Domain Name

Once you’ve purchased a domain head back over to your Smartjobboard admin panel and on the Settings > System Settings > General Settings > Custom Domain Name field and enter your domain.


SSL Certificate

Once you've configured your custom domain properly, the SSL certificate will be automatically applied to your site once the DNS has fully propagated.
