Platform
Publish on reliable hosting without managing servers
DirectoryCraft hosts your site, secures it with SSL, and gives you a fast public experience from day one.
Start on a DirectoryCraft subdomain, then connect your own domain when your directory is ready for a branded launch.
All featuresThe boring infrastructure work is already included so you can focus on the directory.
Managed hosting included
SSL and CDN delivery
Custom domains on Starter and higher
Launch on a subdomain
Use a DirectoryCraft web address while you test, build content, and prepare your launch.
Connect your domain
Connect your own branded domain on Starter or higher.
Skip server setup
Hosting, SSL, and CDN delivery are part of the platform instead of another vendor to manage.
Why it matters
A directory should feel trustworthy before a visitor reads a single record. Domains, security, and speed all shape that first impression.
Common challenges
- Separate hosting setup
- Manual SSL work
- DNS and deployment confusion
With DirectoryCraft
- Publish securely without managing infrastructure
- Start small on a subdomain and upgrade to a branded domain later
