Setting up Name-my-Map

Name-my-Map gives you a convenient, easy-to-share Web address like http://map.yourchurchhome.org where a map to your specified location gets displayed. (The Name-my-Map service uses MapQuest to provide interactive driving directions.)

To setup your Name-my-Map service, follow these steps:
  1. Click on the Login button on the GetYourChurchDomain.com home page and login using your account information.


  2. Click on the "domain names" > "my domains" in the left navigation menu.

  3. Click on the domain name that you wish to configure, listed on the MY DOMAINS screen.


  4. Scroll down towards bottom of Domain Control Panel to section titled "Name-my-Map Settings". Click on the CHANGE SERVICE button.


  5. On the Service selection screen, click on the "enabled" radio button, then the SAVE CHANGES button.


  6. (You should be automatically forwarded to the Map Settings page. If not, click on the CONFIGURE button in the Name-my-Map Settings section of the Domain Control Panel.)

  7. On the Map Settings page, enter the street address you'd like to have mapped. (NOTE: if you change the Host Name field, please only enter a single word; so enter "map", without quotes, and your Name-my-Map URL will be map.yourchurchhome.org, where yourchurchhome.org is your domain name)


  8. Click on the SAVE CHANGES button to finish.


  9. Your Name-my-Map service is now configured and ready for use! (You may need to wait a few minutes for the DNS information to propagate to your local area's Internet servers.)

    Your Name-my-Map Settings section should look something like this:


  10. Go to your Name-my-Map address (map.yourchurchhome.org) and see it in action!
