Change the hosting domain for HubSpot content

Last updated: September 24, 2025

Available with any of the following subscriptions, except where noted:

A hosting domain is the default host for primary content types in HubSpot. You can change your primary content types to any other domain connected to HubSpot, including redirect domains. 

When you connect a domain for the first time, all hosted content will be transferred to that domain. For example, if you had website pages hosted on a system domain and you connect a domain for website pages, all types of content will be transferred to your new domain.

Please note: accounts with the Brands add-on can only have a single primary domain for each content type across the account. Additional domains for each brand will need to be set up as secondary domains.

Move a content type to a new hosting domain

You can move a primary content type to a new subdomain or top-level domain. For example, you could move Website pages from info.hubspot.com to www.hubspot.com

If you're moving to a hosting domain that uses a new brand domain, you'll need to replace your brand domain before switching to the brand domain. 

  1. In your HubSpot account, click the settings settings icon in the top navigation bar.
  2. In the left sidebar menu, navigate to Content > Domains & URLs.
  3. Confirm the new domain is connected. Once connected, you can use it as a hosting domain for a primary content type (e.g., www.hubspot.com).
  4. In the Hosting domains section, click the Actions dropdown menu for the domain you want to move the primary content type to (e.g., www.hubspot.com) and select Change primary content types (e.g., Website pages).

In the domain settings, an arrow is pointing to the Actions dropdown menu for a brand domain.

  1. In the dialog box, click the Primary content types dropdown menu and select the primary content type (e.g., Website pages) that you're moving to the domain (e.g., www.hubspot.com).

In the domain settings, the Change primary content types dialog box is displayed. An arrow is pointing to the Primary content types dropdown menu. A box is displayed around the checkbox for Website pages.

  1. To confirm moving the primary content type to a new hosting domain, select the I Understand checkbox. 
  2. When finished, click Save Changes.
In the domain settings, the Change primary content types dialog box is displayed. A box is displayed around the 'I Understand' checkbox to confirm changes. A box is also displayed around the Save Changes button on the bottom left.

Please note: When you move primary content to a new hosting domain, whether or not URL redirects are created depends on your domain configuration: 

  • If the previous hosting domain is no longer used as a primary or secondary domain, it will become a redirect domain. Redirects will be created from URLs on this domain to the new primary domain. 
  • If the previous hosting domain is still used as a primary or secondary domain for other primary content types, redirects will not be created. Learn more about manually creating URL redirects.
