ClickFunnels keep changing their signup page and sometimes it will ask for credit card information (that way it makes billing easier after the 14 day trial).

Importing Your Legendary Marketer Share Funnel Into ClickFunnels

This may seem like we are jumping a head of the gun, but keep with me here. As ClickFunnels makes it easier to attach a brand spanking new domains to funnels that already exist, it makes sense to do the import here.

Once you have added the funnel, it's time to find a domain. 

Finding A Domain - Where To Choose It

So, we have a brand new sexy ClickFunnels account, or you already had one, either way, cool. With a funnel sitting and waiting. 

You are going to want a domain for this Legendary Marketer Funnel. The reason why is that without it, you end up with your funnel pages having URLS like this.

As you can see, it's just ugly, and personally I think it stops you looking like a real entrepreneur. As such, we are going to grab ourselves a cool sounding domain. 

There are a number of choices here, both have their advantages, and of course, disadvantages. 

  • Purchase a domain from a registrar
  • Purchase a domain from ClickFunnels

Purchasing A Domain From A Registrar

I usually get my domains from sites such as NameCheap or 123Reg. For the sole reason that the domains are cheap, and getting them to work with ClickFunnels is super easy. 

A domain from NameCheap can cost as low as $4.99, which is pretty low. Plus, they also have a number of tools and search engines on the site to help you find the perfect domain name.

If you are struggling to think of a domain name for your new funnels, try these ideas

  • YourName+OnlineBusiness
  • GetPaidWith+YourName
  • GetStartedWith+YourName

It can be any combination of the above, or something completely and utterly random. Though try to keep it 'business' related if you can. 

Once you have found your domain, you can add it to your cart and purchase it.

Purchasing A Domain From ClickFunnels

Of course, if you are feeling lazy, or simply don't want to play around with registrars, then you can grab yourself a domain from ClickFunnels. 

Luckily, purchasing a ClickFunnels domain isn't that difficult, and you can get it sorted in about 5 - 10minutes.

As you can see, I have a few domains set up on my account, including some for Legendary Marketer and my own Blog Training. You will see that these are marked as 'External Domain' as I have purchased mine elsewhere. 

To buy a domain from ClickFunnels, just select 'Add New Domain' and this will start walking you through all the steps you need to do.

Choose 'Register A New Domain' (Unless you have followed path A above, and you already have a domain ready!). 

ClickFunnels will offer you the ability to 'Search For A Domain', which is a little lacking in any bells or whistles.

Once you have found the domain you want to use, click on the $20 button and you will be taken to the payment screen. Once paid for, you have a new domain ready and waiting to be used. 

ClickFunnels should ask you what funnel you would like to associated your new domain with. Simply choose the funnel you imported earlier from the list you are shown.

This, is the tricky part, as it does differ per registrar. Thankfully a lot of them have pretty decent help documents or support teams. Be sure to utilise them and use their expertise. 

This section will try and explain the generic parts and show the steps you need to do to actually get your domain inside of ClickFunnels and ready to be used. 

So for this part, you want to follow the first couple of steps from the 'Purchasing A Domain From ClickFunnels' as they are quite similar.

As with most of ClickFunnels systems or areas, you will be taken along a number of steps to get you set up and ready. Nothing too crazy.

As the domain isn't within the ClickFunnels eco system, you will probably see that is says Unverified when you are taken to your domain list.

No need to panic, simply click your domain name, it should be highlighted in blue and it will take you to the domain settings screen.

Click the huge Verify button and wait. Sometimes this step can take 24-48 hours. As registrars essentially have to notify the world that if anyone goes to the domain name, they should instead go see ClickFunnels. So don't worry if this step takes a while. 

Eventually, you will see that sign turn green with a 'Verified' status. 

Once you are verified, your final step is to add an SSL layer to the domain. This add the tiny padlock you see on sites and essentially tells the world that you are secure and real.

On the 'Domain Setting' list, you will see a section for SSL. New domains will say 'Not Enabled' or similar, with a huge button to say Activate or Turn On. Again this may take a few minutes to activate, so don't worry too much. 

You now have a verified domain, attached to a funnel. Technically you can stop here and get started with the rest of Legendary Marketer. 

Setting Your Domain To Any Imported Funnels

As you go through your journey, both with Legendary Marketer or maybe other affiliate programs, you will find new funnels to import and use. 

You can of course buy more domains for each funnel, or you can use the domain you purchased before and simply 'attach' that domain to brand new funnels. 

Firstly, you are going to want to find the funnel that you want to use and of course open it up. Once there, you should see a number of options at the top of the page.
