Yolasite subdomains are now available

img_yolasite1

We’re excited to introduce the availability of yolasite subdomains.  Now, when you publish a new site with a subdomain, it will contain yolasite (for example, mysitename.yolasite.com) instead of SynthaSite (mysitename.synthasite.com).
If you currently use a SynthaSite subdomain, now you can choose whether or not to switch to Yolasite.com.

Go ahead, keep synthasite.com
You can keep your site on synthasite.com as long as you want. You do not need to change to yolasite.com. You may want to stay put, if:
•    You have a large user base who knows your web address
•    Your site ranks well on search engines
•    There’s printed materials with your web address

Or change to yolasite.com

Yolasite is a bit shorter and easier to spell than our former name. To switch to a yolasite subdomain, you need to log on to Yola and:

Go to the MySites Page

Fill in a site name and click the Change Now button.

Go to the Sitebuilder

More about changing subdomains
•    You can use your existing site name with yolasite.com. We’ll hold it until May 31.
•    You can also get a different site name with yolasite.com – they’ll be available on a first come, first serve basis.
•    Any traffic going to your old synthasite.com web address will be redirected to your new yolasite.com web address – which means returning visitors can still find your site. Your new yolasite.com address will appear in the address bar.
•    Whenever you change subdomains, all content on your site always stays the same.
•    You will need to update your settings with your new web address for domain-specific tools, like Google Webmaster Tools or Google Analytics,.

    Just out of curiosity, is there any possible ways you can change your web address. I am already on yola but now I want to change the web address, not the subdomain.

      Hi Nithin,

      As soon as your site is published it is live on the internet. However, it takes time for newly published sites to be indexed by the search engines. It can take anywhere from a few days to a few months and unfortunately, it is out of our control. Until your site is indexed, people will need to access it by clicking on a link to your site that you provide, or by typing your URL directly into the address bar of their browser.

      For more information on promoting your newly published site, please see: Promoting your website.
