You can assign a landing page to your own subdomain in the Smartpages platform. A free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate will be automatically installed for your subdomain when you add a domain to your account.
This guide will show you how to set up a domain registered via AWS/Route 53. Before you manage the DNS records, add the domain in Smartpages.
Access the DNS management zone
- Log in to your AWS management console.
- Go to the Route 53 console. Click on Services (1) and scroll down or use the search bar (2) at the top of the page to find the console.

- Click on the DNS Management section and locate your domain name.

Click on Create Records to save changes.
Finish the configuration in Smartpages
When you’re ready, go back to Smart pages and click on Confirm/Finish.
Once you’ve added the subdomain to your account, our system will verify whether the DNS redirections have been done correctly. During this time, an hourglass icon will be visible next to the domain with the information that the domain is being verified. Usually, the domain will be active a few hours after adding it, but the total waiting time depends on the number of domains in our system waiting in the queue to install the certificate. We will email you when the domain is installed correctly.
A green globe icon indicates an active domain. You can assign it to your landing page.
