When connecting your domain to SMSGatewayCenter, you have the flexibility to choose between your primary domain or a subdomain. Both options work seamlessly by setting up a CNAME record pointing to unify.smsgateway.center
. Here’s how to decide which one to use:
Option 1: Primary Domain #
- Example:
https://www.example.com
- What It Means: Your main website URL will redirect to SMSGatewayCenter’s platform.
- When to Use: Ideal if you want your primary domain to serve as the access point for SMS services, replacing its usual content with our interface.
- Setup: Create a CNAME record with the host set to
@
or blank, pointing tounify.smsgateway.center
.
Option 2: Subdomain #
- Example:
https://sms.example.com
- What It Means: A specific subdomain (e.g.,
sms
) of your primary domain will link to SMSGatewayCenter, keeping your main site separate. - When to Use: Perfect for maintaining your primary website while dedicating a branded subdomain for SMS management.
- Setup: Create a CNAME record with the host set to your chosen subdomain (e.g.,
sms
), pointing tounify.smsgateway.center
.
