Paid plans let you serve a drop from a domain you own — share.yourbrand.com instead of slug.htmldrop.app. SSL is issued and renewed automatically; there is nothing to configure or pay for separately.

Setting one up

1

Add the domain

In the dashboard, open the drop, then the domain card, and enter the hostname you want to use.
2

Point DNS at us

Create the CNAME record shown to you at your DNS provider. If the domain sits behind Cloudflare, leave the record DNS only (grey cloud) until verification completes.
3

Wait for verification

We poll for the record and issue the certificate automatically. This is usually minutes, but DNS propagation can take longer — the card shows the current state throughout.

Notes

  • Bring your own domain. htmldrop does not sell domains; register yours wherever you like.
  • Apex domains (yourbrand.com with no subdomain) depend on your DNS provider supporting ALIAS/ANAME flattening. A subdomain like share. or docs. always works.
  • Removing a domain is instant and the drop reverts to its htmldrop.app address, which never stops working.
