Do I Need a Custom Domain to Publish My Walter Site?

No. You can publish your Walter site and share it with anyone right away, with or without a custom domain.

Written by Chris Toscano

Your Site Gets a Free Address Automatically

When you publish without a custom domain, Walter assigns your site an address in this format:

your-project-name.marblism.me

You choose "your-project-name" during Walter's setup. It's suggested from your website name, and a number is added if it's taken. The address goes live when your first publish finishes, usually within a few minutes.

💡 Your .marblism.me site works exactly like a site with a custom domain: same design, same content, same functionality. The only difference is the address itself.


Recommended Flow

  1. Design and adjust your site with Walter until you're happy with the result.

  2. Click Publish. Your site goes live at its .marblism.me address, usually within a few minutes.

  3. Share that address with your audience, clients, or team from day one.

  4. When you're ready to add a custom domain, go to Settings > Domain and connect it. Your site keeps working throughout the transition.

💡 Adding a custom domain later doesn't affect your existing site. Once your domain is connected, it shows your latest published version on its own, and your .marblism.me address keeps working too.
