If you are serious about using HubSpot to grow your business, I recommend that you purchase a company domain and connect it to your HubSpot account.
Yes, you can use HubSpot without a company domain. When you sign up for HubSpot, you can use your personal email address as your login ID. However, you will not be able to use some of the features of HubSpot that require a company domain, such as:
- Website builder: You will not be able to use the HubSpot website builder to create a website for your company.
- Email marketing: You will not be able to send email campaigns from your company's domain.
- Social media: You will not be able to connect your company's social media accounts to HubSpot.
- Marketing automation: You will not be able to create marketing automation workflows that send emails or social media posts from your company's domain.
If you want to use these features, you will need to purchase a company domain and connect it to your HubSpot account. You can purchase a domain name from a variety of domain registrars, such as GoDaddy or Namecheap.
Once you have purchased a domain name, you can connect it to your HubSpot account by following these steps:
- Go to your HubSpot account and click on the Settings icon.
- Click on the Domains & URLs tab.
- Click on the Add domain button.
- Enter your domain name and click on the Continue button.
- Follow the instructions to verify your domain name.
Once your domain name is verified, you will be able to use all of the features of HubSpot that require a company domain.
Here are some of the benefits of using a company domain with HubSpot:
