After your GIT repository is connected with Netlify, the last issue you may want to solve is the domain name\index{Domain Name}, unless you are satisfied with the free Netlify subdomain. If you want to use a different domain, you need to configure some DNS records of the domain to point it to the Netlify server. See Appendix \@ref(domain-name) for some background knowledge on domain names.

If you are not familiar with domain names or do not want to learn more about them, something to consider is a free subdomain `*.rbind.io` offered by RStudio, PBC. Please visit the Rbind support website <https://support.rbind.io> to learn how to apply for a subdomain. In fact, the Rbind organization also offers free help on how to set up a website based on **blogdown**, thanks to a lot of volunteers from the R and statistics community.

Netlify is the only solution in this chapter that does not require you to prebuild your website. You only need to update the source files, push them to GitHub, and Netlify will build the website for you.^[This is called "continuous deployment."] The rest of the solutions in this chapter will require you to build your website locally and upload the `public/` folder explicitly or implicitly. That said, you can certainly prebuild your website using any tools, push it to GitHub, and Netlify is still able to deploy it for you. What you need to do is leave the build command empty, and tell Netlify your publish directory (e.g., Hugo's default `public/`, but if your prebuilt website is under the root directory, specify `.` as the publish directory instead). Then Netlify simply uploads all files under this directory to its servers without rebuilding your website.
