URLs for Stanford Domains

Categories: FAQ, Getting Started

There are two ways to simplify the URL for your Stanford Domains site: Setup a vanity URL or Request a custom Stanford subdomain.

Request a vanity URL through the Vanity URL application. Vanity URLs are only available to departments, research groups, and university-recognized student organizations. Once users are redirected to your site on Stanford Domains, the URL will display example.su.domains.

Create a Stanford subdomain for your site using the Add-On domain functionality in Stanford Domains. This will make your site reachable via <customname>.stanford.edu (example.stanford.edu) and it will continue to display the domain name when visitors browse your site.

For instructions on requesting and setting up a Custom Domain, see our article Getting a Custom Stanford.edu Website on Stanford Domains :
