Platform Features and Benefits
Every Website Includes:
Your own domain name
A FREE .com domain of your choice, registered for your campaign. Political domains like .republican and .democrat are also available. Already have a domain? You can use that instead.
SSL certificate (https)
Your site runs on a secure connection, protecting your visitors’ information and giving you a small but real boost in Google search rankings. Voters trust padlocked sites.
Logo and graphics
Your custom campaign logo and header graphics are provided in high-resolution versions at no extra charge — ready for yard signs, mailers, and social media from day one.
Best SEO practices
Your site is structured from the start so search engines can find and understand it. You can customize page titles and descriptions and control how pages and posts appear when shared online.
Mobile-friendly design
Your site looks professional on every device — phone, tablet, and desktop. Most voters will find you on their phone first.
'Under Construction' page
Permanent email addresses
Create professional email addresses at your own domain — yourname @yourcampaign.com — that you can send and receive from anywhere.

Route campaign emails to any inbox you already use. No extra accounts to manage.
