Have you done a search on all our other threads to see if they can help you on this matter ?

what I mean is we have 100's of threads with this same problem if reading over some of them may help you more.

It is more easy to use our system to make domain names as we do all the work for you and we even make it more easy to get a HTTPS Address but this will not work if you have a domain name from outside of FM.
